We are now offering a mixture of online and offline talks: ‘in person’ talks at live venues, enabling members to socialise; and talks via Zoom, which have proved popular and can reach a wider (even international) audience. Talks normally start at 7.30pm on the dates shown, but do check each one for details. Talks are available for free by following the Zoom links emailed to each CHS member. Do become a member if you would like to attend. You will need to have previously put Zoom on your computer or tablet. Some, but not all, of our talks are recorded and those can be watched by anyone on the links below.
