Following our Annual General Meeting, Wendy Robinson (Chair of the Aire Rivers Trust) gives the talk: "Aire Miles"Wendy will tell us about her ongoing project to walk the length of the River Aire, all 92 miles of it, over 12 months! She is taking a photo at every premeasured mile.
‘Is a river alive?’ asks Robert McFarlane in his best-selling book. It certainly feels like that, as Wendy walks from its birth, above Malham to its mouth near Goole.
Spaces at events are limited for non-members. If you are not a member, please book a place by emailing our secretary ([email protected]). All indoor talks meet for 7.30pm start at the Kirkgate Community Centre in Shipley (BD18 3EH), refreshments are provided at the interval.

Our Annual General Meeting consists of the usual statutory agenda but this year our Secretary is standing down so we are looking for someone to step up to the role.
