About the Club
This popular club, which is affiliated to the National Association of Flower Arrangement Societies, was started in 1958 and has attracted members from Loddon and the surrounding area ever since.
Meetings usually take place on the first Tuesday of the month, at 7.30pm in the Hobart School in Loddon, when members come to watch a high standard demonstration of flower arranging.
Occasionally there is an informal workshop, with the opportunity to try out a particular technique; sometimes an outing to a special venue or event; or a social occasion, often in a local garden.
Novices and more experienced members are shown mechanics and ideas for arranging flowers for home, church and special occasions, and learn techniques for interpretive work.
Some members take part in competitions and many enjoy helping with flower festivals in churches and elsewhere.
Each year the club enters a team in the competition at the Royal Norfolk Show, and has won the Jocelyn Steward Group Trophy several times.
On more than one occasion the club has represented the East of England Area Association of NAFAS at the RHS Flower Show at Chelsea, winning the Grenfell Medal there in 1989.
Whether you are a beginner or expert, want to participate or just relax and watch someone arranging beautiful flowers, come and join us.
There is always something to learn, and possibly a lovely arrangement to take home. Why not come as a visitor and try us out!
