Thanks so much. Will email them. I’m struggling to find anything local. Really appreciate your reply. 

It's on the Ivy House website under "activities".

First Monday of the month at 7pm.

 The pub won't be directly running this group themselves, but if you did want to contact them,  the events manager is Sam and his email address is [email protected]

He might have a contact number or email address for whoever started the group, should you want to find out more about it before turning up to it!

Looks like the website is a bit out of date.  It meets every week, but they don't always book a table with the pub. If you are new I would wait until about 7:15 as it will be more obvious who the group are. 

To be fair, unless someone from the group has told Sam that their arrangements have changed, he can't be expected to change the website!

But even if they have, he has a really heavy workload and works very hard at putting on and overseeing  a wide range of excellent events and activities, so it may take him a while to do it.

    • Hubby had to retire from work due to serious ill health which had meant he was off work for several months at a time. His hospital consultant advised part time employment only, Signed on at Job Centre and asked them to send him on courses, especially IT has not computer literate or had a computer. Job Centre refused and insisted he applied for full time work even though he produced medical evidence from hospital and letter from previous employment detailing the reason why had medically retired him. He applied for the (then) disability allowance but was refused as not disabled enough and the fact he could work part time. Applied f or several part time jobs but when they knew of his medical history turned him down. That was 18 years ago. Disabled people who want  to work find it hard to find employment. I studied Disability and Employment in Holland as part of my degree and found at that time, the Dutch system more flexible. If a disabled person found a job part time, they still received a portion of their benefit as well as wages. If found a full time position, benefit suspended and were subject to regular reviews as to how they performed in  the job. If there were no problems, benefit was withdrawn, however if they found the work was not suited to their disability - they gave up work and went straight back to receiving their full benefit. If a disabled person finds employment, their benefits stop immediately. If they cannot maintain the work and are sacked, getting back onto benefits is very difficult, Give those who are able to work at least part time, the opportunity to have reduced benefits to top up wages.
