———- Thank you for visiting! ———-
We are an active and friendly Institute with a programme we feel offers something of interest for everyone. As well as having speakers on a wide variety of subjects, we enjoy social events such as our Summer Garden Party, February Birthday celebrations, Christmas Lunch at a local pub, theatre trips and other outings. Members take part in the Petersfield Villages Group’s regular meetings and events, and join other Hampshire Institutes at County meetings. Our members also work actively and successfully to support local charities and organisations.
Founded in 1949, our meetings were originally held in Stroud village (hence our name) but we now meet at Petersfield Physic Garden, at 2.15pm on the third Thursday of each month.
Unfortunately, like many other organisations, our meetings have been suspended for the past few months: however we shall restart as soon as Covid restrictions allow.
