PROBUS CLUB
OF EWELL
The Probus Club of Ewell was formed in
1971 and in 2011 has 61
Members with a
variety of
professional
backgrounds. We
meet on the
first Wednesday
of each month
to enjoy
fellowship in a
social manner,
usually at a
pleasant
Council owned
venue, Bourne
Hall in Ewell (the Ladies Lunches are at other delightful venues),
for a Lunch
followed by a
Speaker,
from
time to time we have managed to secure the services of a high profile
speakers, such as Virginia McKenna, Kenneth Wharf, Sir Bernard Ingham, etc.. A wide
range of topics
is covered and
talks are often
illustrated
with slides or PowerPoint presentations. See programme for upcoming speakers
