Meetings

 

The Surrey Poultry Society meetings are a great way for new and old poultry keepers to meet and swap stories, tips and advice.

The meetings are really social evenings which are varied and fun with guest speakers, questions & answer sessions, quizzes, box shows and much, much more. For new poultry keepers the meetings offer you the opportunity to learn more about keeping hens and discover a whole new world of poultry showing.

Meetings start at 8pm and are held on the first Monday of the month (unless stated otherwise) at the Worplesdon Memorial Hall, Worplesdon, Guildford GU3 3RF. The Hall can be found on the A322 opposite the Worplesdon Place Hotel.

If you want to find out what it’s all about before joining the Surrey Poultry Society pop along to a meeting where a warm greeting is guaranteed!
