The first meeting will be on Monday 24 September at 7pm.

The speaker for the September meeting will be Professor Mark Hanson from the Department of Human Development and Health at Southampton University.

He will be talking about 'Fat,Fate & Obesity' based on a book he has written with this title.

The Regency Suite is above the Conservative Club in Shanklin in Palmerston Road just off The High Street.

The nearest car park is in Landguard Road and only two or three minutes walk to the Conservative Club. Parking is free after 6pm.

As we now have to pay a rent for the facilities, we will have to ask for a donation of at least £3 on the door (instead of passing the hat round) to make sure we cover all our expenses. i.e. the rent, cost of speakers' travel expenses and a meal, plus overnight accommodation if needed.
