The FAN Club
|
Now in its 9th year the FAN Club goes from strength to strength, its members coming not only from St Anne's but from all over Corstorphine and beyond. Its name tells you much about it but not all - Friends And Neighbours -retired people who want to keep their minds active and informed. They want to learn about other countries and developments, history and hobbies, discoveries and inventions, challenges and success stories. Most love the talks, many come for the pleasure of having tea / coffee and new bakes and cakes with their friends or neighbours. Some even enjoy the occasional quiz !
The programme of speakers and events can always be found below or from the church office. The FAN Club meets every second Friday from 10.30 am. to noon in St Anne’s Church, Corstorphine ____________________ |
Volunteer drivers (not necessarily members of the FAN Club) are urgently needed to bring frail people to and from the FAN Club, held on alternate Friday mornings.
