Indoor Meetings

All indoor meetings are generally held on the third Friday of each month at Hurstmere School, Hurst Road, Sidcup beginning at 7.45pm (View Map). There is plenty of car parking space and the 229 bus passes along the road. Doors usually open around 7.15pm and there is much to interest visitors in addition to the main speaker of the evening. You can book seats for forthcoming coach trips and a raffle is held during the interval. Tea and biscuits are also available.

The atmosphere is friendly and informal, with an opportunity to exchange information with fellow members or seek advice from a number of experienced birdwatching members of the Committee. Non-members are warmly welcomed to all our meetings, events and outings.

There is a small admission charge of £3.50 for members and £4.50 for non-members.
Under 16s pay just 60p.

We welcome friends and non-members to all our events and outings.
Please come and say 'hello' if you are new to our group.
