Essex Federation Events
The Essex Federation organise two Saturday events in the Autumn and Spring at the Feering Community Centre (click here for a map). Three courses run throughout the day on a variety of topics.

Whether you want a convenient introduction to the WEA or just want to meet up with old friends in a convivial atmosphere, these events are ideal for you. The next event is scheduled for Saturday 24 April at the Feering Community centre; see below for more details. We regret we were unable to obtain a speaker on the Royal Society in time for this occasion, but we are delighted to announce that Quintus Berzinger will present a course on the composer Schumann instead.

Bookings have opened for this event - click here to download the brochure.
