Social Events Co-ordinator, Doreen Albin
For meals, please contact the organiser at least 3 days beforehand if no booking date is given. This saves the organiser unnecessary phone calls or hassle with restaurants.
For some events it may be necessary to reserve space in advance. Late bookings are at the organiser’s discretion.
Notice is not required for pub nights – just turn up anytime after the start time stated.
If you would like to organise anything, details can be circulated by email but please check with Doreen (doreen@albin.co.uk) first to avoid clashing with other similar events.
