An Afternoon by the Sea

Join us for an afternoon by the sea at The Wheelhouse in Stubbington.

If the weather is good, we will sit outdoors for lunch and conversation followed by a walk along the sea front for those that wish to do so.

Bring a packed lunch or order some fish & chips to be delivered, and maybe treat yourself to an ice cream!

We will also have some activities available in doors for those of you that prefer to stay out of the sun, or if the weather is not too good.

We will meet at The Wheelhouse at midday and stay until 4pm.
