Wednesday Lectures
We are very proud of our links with the University; the Vice Chancellor is our President and several lectures are given by senior academic staff throughout the year. We are continually grateful for their support and assistance.
These lectures are completely free to our Members. We welcome new visitors to our lectures. You are able to attend 1-2 lectures or groups before joining. Please remember to join or renew membership as soon as you can. Failure to do so will affect our indemnity insurance and our privileged use of the excellent facilities at Swansea University. You will be asked to sign in on arrival so that we can check your membership.
Recent topics have varied from "Victorian Wit and Humour" to "Swansea in the Great War" and "The WNO Spring Programme with Musical Extracts" to "The Great German POW Escape from Island Farm Bridgend” Our programme ends in June and we publish a full programme in August of every year.
Non members can see an example programme. Members can log in to see the current lectures.
There is no parking at the University. The nearest parking is at the Recreation Ground, behind The Pub on the Pond or in Sketty - it is a pleasant walk into the University.
