2026/27 Session
Meetings take place in Room D137 on the ground floor of the McLean Building, UWS, Paisley, from 7:00 pm to 9:00 pm on the second Thursday of each month from October to May, excluding January.
Please note that dates may occasionally change, so it’s best to check the website a few days before attending.
From 7:00 to 7:30, there’s an informal time with tea, coffee, and snacks, and committee members will be on hand to answer questions and share details about upcoming events, field trips, and membership.
To get to the McLean Building, either enter from the High Street through the car park gate, walk downhill 100 meters, and find the entrance on your right—Room D137 is the first door on the right—or come from the car park entrance on Storie Street, follow the footpath straight ahead for 100 meters, and enter through the double doors.
