Join us for a coffee morning this Saturday

Dear Members

After a summer break our coffee mornings return this month with our next gathering this Saturday 21 September at the usual time of 10.30-12.00 at Waitrose cafe in Basingstoke (RG21 4YY).

If you haven't joined us before, Margaret, Keith and Sue from our North Hampshire committee are due to attend, and usually at least one of them wears their orange Coeliac UK top to help you spot them.

There is a large car park at the rear with free parking for the first two hours (though you must still get a ticket from the machines). Basingstoke Railway station is a five-minute walk away.

You can find out about our other events planned on our website here: https://www.coeliac.org.uk/local-groups/north-hampshire/events/search/

As always if you have any comments or questions, please don’t hesitate to email us at northhampshire@coeliac.org.uk

We hope you can make it!

Register for our Christmas meal in Basingstoke

Following the success of the North Hampshire Christmas Dinner last year, we are planning a return visit to the BCOT Restaurant, Worting Road, Basingstoke RG21 8TN on the evening of 5th December 2024.

If you are interested in coming along, please respond by email to northhampshire@coeliac.org.uk and we will contact you with further information in due course.

Children's Christmas Party - sign up now!

As a reminder, sign up is open for families with coeliac children to join us at our children's Christmas party.  We have started to promote it to the wider coeliac community, so recommend you sign up quickly if you haven't already done so as places are on a first come first served basis.

When: 3.30pm - 5.30pm on Saturday 30 November

Where: Hook, near Basingstoke (on site parking or a short walk from the train station)

We plan to have a delicious gluten free buffet and DJ NikNak will again provide the entertainment with music and party games. This year the hall is larger, with an adjoining room for quieter activities.

The entertainment is aimed at primary school aged children, but younger and older children are welcome to come along.  As with all our family events, children must be accompanied by an adult throughout the event.

This year we are able to subsidise tickets, with prices at £2 for adults, £10 for children age 4+ and £5 age 2-3.

Please email us at northhampshire@coeliac.org.uk to register your interest for the party.  We will then share further details of the party with the booking form and how to pay the deposit.
