BRANCH AGM
7pm, Wednesday, 29th April 2026
EBMC, Seaview Road, Peacehaven
Members are invited and encouraged to attend this important event in the branch’s calendar.
A paid bar and free buffet allow those attending to have an informal gathering before the meeting. The business, including the election of committee members, will be brief but will allow anyone attending to raise any issue relevant to the branch. Any feedback and suggestions will be particularly welcome.
This year, we have been fortunate in securing, as our guest speaker, Mike Rumble, a retired Sussex Police officer who served at Brighton, and who will be known to many branch members. Mike is an experienced and entertaining public speaker who will give a presentation on The History of Sussex Police – something we may think we know all about but will almost certainly find we do not!
The Committee look forward to welcoming you to the branch AGM for a relaxed and entertaining evening.
An Evening to Remember!
7.30pm, Wednesday, 6th May 2026
at The Pavilion Theatre Worthing
Performed by a great cast of Irish musicians, the show is packed full of classics
like Whiskey in the Jar, The Irish Rover and of course, Seven Drunken Nights –
guaranteed to get your toes tapping (and maybe even get you dancing!) as they bring
the joy of the much-loved Irish folk band The Dubliners back to the stage.
This ultimate feel-good show celebrates the musical mastery of The Dubliners,
Ireland’s favourite sons. The show spans over 50 years, commemorating The Story of
The Dubliners for a night of great music and a celebration of the band that influenced
many generations of Irish music.
Don’t miss your chance to see this world-class production that’s brought a decade of
unforgettable nights to packed-out theatres. Seven Drunken Nights is the ultimate
Irish show, with audiences returning year after year from around the globe.
