Addingham Memorial Hall, first and third Thursdays of every month.
A social gathering of retired gentlemen, talks and presentations on a range of subjects.
The Probus club had its first meeting on 14 February 1980 where G W (Bill) Hall was elected as the first chairman. The club has held twice monthly meetings since 1980 except when they clash with elections and during the Covid pandemic. It was decided that the club should be open to retired and semi-retired professional and businessmen living in the Addingham area but that definition is not intended to be restrictive and is interpreted in the widest sense.
