Well - this looks like it’s going to be a marvellous night. 🫶📸🕷️

This is our opening night Presidents Talk for 2026 by Lynda Haney.

"This is a wildlife talk with a difference as we get up close and personal with the animals. Some of the animals you will see are smaller than 1mm in size, many are just a few mm. I not only show you insects and arthropods that you may not have seen before, or seen in detail before, but I also give you some interesting facts that I hope will inform and entertain you.” - Lynda

Emmanuel Church Hall, Cambridge Road, Southport PR9 9PR (see map in comments).

7.30pm Start

Non members - £4.00 admission 😊
