Meetings include news of society and shipping events be they local, national or international. The main evening's entertainment usually takes the form of a talk accompanied by slides. Over the years the evenings themes have included almost every type of ship and has featured shipping from ports, harbours and canals from all corners of the world See our "diary page" and "meeting reports" pages to see the diverse range of topics that have been covered. A break in the evening's programme allows members time to catch up with other member's news and views and to take advantage of the Club's bar for refreshments (a small annual membership fee payable).
