Enjoyable, Educational and Sociable Activities
Who we are
We are a local charity organisation in the village of Ravenshead, Nottinghamshire, that caters for active people from all walks of life, no longer in full-time work.
Our prime purpose is to encourage lifetime learning and participation in informal, fun, enjoyable activities and interests across a wide range of topics, pursuits and pastimes.
You will meet people who want to learn new things, keep active, share interests, enjoy socialising and making friends. As we like to say: Learn, Laugh and Live!
