January 2026

Online (Zoom)

CATCH-UP

A New Year catch-up: a chance to chat and share and to look forward to 2026.

An especially warm welcome to any new members of KENRIC who would like to join us to say hello.

THEMED BOOK CLUB

Join Anna for our themed book club - running on the last Wednesday of the month. Each month there will be a theme ... we have chosen some themes for the first three but after that we will ask for ideas from the group. All attendees will get a chance to share their choice for the theme - why they chose the book, why they like it (or not) and the basics of the storyline. Attendees will then get a chance to ask questions.

So a chance to share and to learn about new books and authors.

Don't forget to bring your chosen book along to the meeting!

The theme for January - looking back at your most memorable book of 2025.

Face to Face

COFFEE AT DEPOT

Depot Theatre - Lewes
Beat the January blues and join us for coffee and a chat at Depot, the award-winning cinema in Lewes.

Meet in the café from 10:15.

Newbies and regulars all welcome.

PLAY ELECTRIC SHUFFLE

London Bridge, 10 Bermondsey Street, London
Come and try out a new winter-friendly game.

We haven't run a SHUFFLEBOARD event yet, but we'd like to try - we enjoyed ourselves when we tried it out last month and want to share the fun of a new game!

Shuffleboard is a game where you glide a little puck down a wooden sawdust covered table aiming to land them in scoring zones - with 2 people playing against each other. Absolutely no experience necessary. The venue is fully accessible.

We have booked one table. There is a charge per person to play at a table for 1 hour, but for this first occasion there is no pre-payment necessary.

You are welcome to join us afterwards at the same venue for a drink/food or just to chat!

at 11.15 for an 11.30 start.

Ever wanted to learn how to play pool? For those of us who haven’t got a clue or who feel they are very much a beginner, this is for you!
Your host is happy to explain the basics and give tips.

The venue is an old style 10 pin bowling alley with a good atmosphere and some pool tables.

You will need to pay the entrance fee (£1) and each pool game costs £2 so bring some cash!
Drinks are available at the venue and it should be a fun evening.
