A typical Club night
Doors open at 7pm. Our sales table sells floral sundries at wholesale prices. Pre-ordered 'Flower Arranger' magazines are collected. At 7.30pm we sit down to watch a professional flower arranger create beautiful flower arrangements on stage. Our demonstrators talk as they arrange, giving us tips, information and amusing anecdotes as they go along. The flower arrangements are raffled. We finish the evening at approximately 9.30pm with tea, coffee and biscuits.

Website and photos
Photographs: many of our demonstrators now request that we do not publish photos of their flower arrangements online as it spoils the surprise for other audiences. However we do keep a record in our photo albums which you can view at Club nights.Website: we would welcome information suitable for publication.
