Rhaglen Darlithiau 2021
The 2023-24 season will be a mixture of in-person only lectures at the Borough Theatre, and
lectures on Zoom with an audience limited to 60 at the Melvillle Centre. Information about each
month’s lecture can be found on the This Month page. Members will be sent the Zoom link to
log in a couple of days before each talk at the Melville Centre. A reminder about the talk and
its content will be sent out in the monthly email newsletter.
