Thursday Club |
| The Thursday Club {known by
some as the Thirsty Club ! } meets monthly for people who
like to enjoy life and have the time to do so. On the 2nd Thursday afternoon of each month we gather in the Village Hall to participate in activities which range from craft workshops and quiz sessions to talks on varied subjects such as travel , photography, gardening, local history, and steam trains. In June each year we have a garden party, thanks to the generosity of various members. Each month we also sample a pub lunch in one of the many pubs in the region, and we organise several trips out during the year . This year (2008) we have also been to Rugby Theatre and Hidcote Manor. We will be going to Tewksbury , and Christmas shopping to Milton Keynes in the coming months. Our aim as a group is to have a good and varied calendar throughout the year which allows us the opportunity to enjoy social interaction and new experiences. |

The Willoughby Society has been providing social activities for the people of Willoughby for over 45 years. As well as providing interesting talks for the members on wide ranging topics the Society organises a variety of social events for members and non members. The Society
actively supports initiatives to enhance the Village and is custodian of the Village Archives aiming to continually
increase and protect these for generations to come. With
this in mind we completed a project in 2009 to make the
