A very warm welcome to Brixham Probus Club!
The Probus Club movement was formed in the United Kingdom in 1965. Brixham Probus Club was founded in 1967 and we welcome all retired or semi-retired men from Brixham and the surrounding area. We are a non-political, non-sectarian group, whose aims are to provide a range of speakers on interesting topics and to offer fellowship.
We hold two lunches per year: Chairman’s Lunch in March and Christmas Lunch in December with other occasional outings to places of interest.
Venue
We meet every Thursday in the Catholic Church Hall on New Road. This is situated on the main road leading into Brixham approximately 300 metres from the main shopping centre and bus terminus. The 12 and 13 buses stop outside the door and the hall is accessible by wheelchair. There is a toilet for the disabled and a loop system for the hard of hearing. All facilities are on the ground floor. The meeting starts at 1030. Free refreshments are available from 0945 and the meeting usually finishes at about 1145.
The charge is £3 per visit with no annual fee and no payment for your first three visits. Why not come and give it a try?
Please note that talks can be subject to change.
