We are finally able to look hopefully at resuming meetings in the autumn, COVID-willing, and are looking at possibilities for interesting talks. We have not planned a group outing and will defer this until next year.

Updates will be sent direct to members and be published in Dorchester News and on the village website.

Many other historical societies and groups have gone down the Zoom route, and we hope you may have been able to join some of these. We ourselves chose not to explore these options, or greater use of social media, as we just don’t have the skills or capacity in our present committee. We would need a new, dedicated committee member to take this forward. Any offers?

We look forward to meeting you all again later in the year. And please do let us have any ideas you may have for future activities.

Margot Metcalfe, Chairman
