All Aboard the Good Ship Recorder!

Playing a musical instrument keeps the brain sharp and active. If fingers let you down, keys can be adapted. And playing in a group encourages the skills of listening and working together and is FUN! 

The group is friendly, supportive and always welcoming to new players. Once a month a recorder professional comes to spur us on and advise as needed.

We meet weekly on Tuesdays 2-4pm in a large, comfortable ground floor lounge where I live on The Hornet, so no access problems. The 700 and 51 buses stop outside and there are two car parks 6-8mins walk away, one free for 3 hours. (Parking onsite is limited but may be possible). 

Email here with some details and we’ll have a chat about a taster session.
