Welcome to the website of Timperley Probus Club. We are a group of retired and semi retired professionals and businessmen who meet on alternate Wednesday mornings. We have met for several years at Branksome
Hall,Clay Lane, Timperley but due to its redevelopment we moved, on a temporary basis, further down Clay Lane to Bowdon Rugby Club WA15 7AF. We are now hoping to be back at Branksome Hall early in the new year.
Although
timing could still vary due to Covid, we meet at 10.00 for 10.30 a.m. for Coffee and Biscuits and after a chance to socialise there is a talk by an invited speaker at 10.30 a.m. This normally lasts about an hour after which there is time for questions. The
talks cover a wide variety of interesting subjects and topics as you can see from the list of past talks on the List of Speakers page.
We have a walking/luncheon group that normally meets on alternate Wednesdays for a walk of around
3-4 miles, for those who wish to participate, or simply to have a lunch at a suitable venue.
On Monday and Thursday mornings members play bowls in the summer and snooker in the winter
There are organised
visits to many places of interest over the year and there are three lunches/dinners each year, all are available to members partners and friends.
We welcome new members and if you would like to come to a meeting as our guest
without charge or obligation then you are welcome to do so for the first two meetings. If you are interested please contact the club secretary David Owen on 0161 973 9648 or via email at dglentonowen@gmail.com
