THE HASSOCKS FIELD SOCIETY
…..Aims to encourage interest in the countryside for the environment through a programme of talks, walks, coach outings and fundraising coffee mornings.
TALKS: We have a programme of Monday evening meetings with speakers, twice a month from September to April. Talks cover all aspects of wildlife and countryside. Also local history, travel and places of interest in and around Sussex.
OUTINGS: Occasional coach outings are organised for members, visiting National Trust properties, gardens, historical sites and other places of interest.
COFFEE MORNINGS : Two coffee mornings are arranged each year, providing an opportunity for members to meet and socialise, while at the same time raising funds for a local charity or project.
