About Us:

We were formed in 1927 and currently have 39 members, who are a lively, friendly and active group who enjoy outings.
We have adopted a stretch of Silloth West Beach and The Beach Gang clean it regularly. We also carry out 4 surveys a year and send our findings to Marine Conservation Trust
(see righthand picture of Frances recording a day's collection).
Our Garden Gang maintain the garden in front of the Discovery Centre in Silloth.
Our Christmas Lunch Party, held at Silloth -on- Solway Golf Club. was deemed a great success & enjoyed by all.
In 2010 a Book Reading Group was formed. The first book was Alan Bennet's An Uncommon Reader.
A Theatre Group has also been formed  with a trip to a 'Queen' Triute and we look forward to seeing Calendar Girls in 2011.
