This page contains information about the nationally arranged meets. Most meets are organised locally and are found under the areas link.
Following on from our excellent summer gather, our next event will be the Autumn Gather. This will be at Barnwell, Northamptonshire PE8 5QD from Thursday 18th September to 22nd September. The price for the meet will be £16 per night (a slightly higher price than normal due to the cost of the hall for workshops).
This meet is being coordinated by the Home Counties Area. For most up to date information please see their website. Home Counties - http://hcfdsg.org.uk
There will be dancing every evening to a live band. The hall will also be available during the day on Saturday and Sunday for music sessions, dancing and craft workshops. There will also be a members meeting (a chance to discuss future directions for the group) and a bring and share tea on Saturday afternoon.
Do remember that these events are only the very few that are organised centrally, typically four a year: the Early Season Residential, The Spring Festival, The Summer Gather and the Autumn Gather (traditionally with a special emphasis on crafts). The vast majority of our exciting and vibrant activities are organised by individual areas, and publicised through their websites which ensures details are up to date and can react to local circumstances.
