THE institute meets on the second Tuesday of every month at 8pm in the Parish Centre, Studley.

This friendly group of ladies enjoys a variety of entertainment, craft workshops, talks and social gatherings with a dash of food and drink for good measure.

Recent activities have included a ''Behind the TV Cameras'' talk, poetry evening, ribbon craft workshop and a talk entitled Universe in a Nut-shell.

The meeting on Tuesday, July 10, will include a talk by Jenny Alder on Working in RSC Wardrobe.
