DIRECTORY of SNAPE VILLAGE & LOCAL GROUPS, etc. AND THEIR FIRST CONTACTS
Normally, no more than two of their contacts appear here, typically their Secretary (or equivalent) — plus maybe their "Chair". | ||||||
Where a group's name below appears as a blue link, that leads to their page or website if they have one. | ||||||
All regular events take place at Snape Village Hall, unless stated or implied otherwise. | ||||||
though obviously during the pandemic alternative arrangements apply, if indeed the group is currently active. | ||||||
