The gardening section continues to own its collection of equipment. It costs only £10 to buy into the equipment, and £2 per year thereafter. We have a shredder, scarifier, hedge trimmers and lawn vacuum. We no longer qualify for discount on seeds and other items, as we were not sent any catalogues a couple of years ago. I had been away and realised belatedly we had no catalogues to circulate. Meanwhile the keenest allotmenteer gardeners ordered elsewhere, reducing our order considerably and eventually losing the discount, which depended on the size of our joint order.

We'd love to see you on a Wednesday evening. Be bold. Don't say to yourself "I don't think I'll be good enough". We can accommodate you and don't demand that you be an expert. More important that you want to have fun. We don't stand on ceremony. We are a friendly bunch. You don't even need a partner, we would provide one, should you come alone.
So, please just come along. We meet each Wednesday evening and settle down to play from 7:25pm. Over the course of the evening we aim to play some 24 or 25 exciting hands of duplicate Bridge. We charge everyone £1.50 "table" money each evening to cover our outgoings (these include tea, coffee and biscuits).

Yoga is a way of developing awareness of our bodies, how we use them and how we might be abusing them. Our aim is to have a healthy body and a relaxed mind and free ourselves from the unwanted stresses and tensions of everyday life. We do this by improving breathing techniques and gentle stretching exercises, followed by postures (asanas) and finish with a short period of relaxation.
Wear loose clothing, such as leggings and a t-shirt and bring a yoga mat or exercise mat, along with a blanket for knee support and warmth in relaxation. All ages and mixed abilities are welcome. New members are advised to contact Pam beforehand in case the class is full. Pam is a fully qualified British Wheel of Yoga teacher with many years experience.

We walk every Thursday morning starting at 10.30am alternating between shorter (3-5 miles) and longer (6-8 miles). Meeting venues are arranged in advance and posted on our website. All walks are led by walking members, volunteering to lead on an occasional basis with help and support from others.
If you would like to try this fun and beneficial form of exercise then some suitable hiking footwear, outerwear, a packed lunch and your enthusiasm are all that are required. Although we like to think of these outings as healthy we also consider it to be a social event and an optional visit to a local hostelry is usually arranged to restore our drained energy.

Hallam Art Group is one of the larger groups within HCYA with a membership of up to 70 who give support to each other and to the Group as a whole, both in the day to day running and with our exhibitions. We meet to paint weekly on Thursday evenings, 7.30pm to 9.30pm in the main room of the Hallam Community Hall. We do not provide lessons at our meetings, just the space and informal atmosphere to grow in our artistic enjoyment.
During the year we have a programme of interesting and informative activities: workshops, demonstrations, life drawing, occasional portrait and still life sessions and sketching outings. We have an excellent library of art books and DVDs to borrow and hold regular DVD presentations, in a separate room, allowing for appreciation and discussion afterwards. The Hallam Art Group is a friendly, supportive group where help and advice is readily available from our more experienced members.
We hold two exhibitions during the year in the HCYA Hall, and in the Botanical Gardens. We also have the opportunity to display members artwork at various other venues.
More information about the group can be found at our website website.

Our fortnightly wine tasting sessions are usually held in the Community Hall on alternate Thursdays at 8:00pm. Tastings are often presented by Guild members and are on various topics including wines from a particular region or a specific grape variety. These are sampled with cheese and biscuits, some nibbles, or food appropriate to the wines.
We also arrange for wine merchants to visit us so we can share their knowledge of wine. This year we have had talks from Waitrose, The Dram Shop and Starmore Boss. There are occasional themed evenings with a meal, and summer and autumn barbecues.
Outings are organised two or three times a year including a holiday abroad. We are a very sociable group and if you are interested in joining please e-mail our Chairman, Brian, and your name can be placed on our waiting list. We are limited to how many members we can seat in the room and our membership is currently full.

This class is intended especially for the "young at heart" although it is open to anyone and no experience of yoga is necessary. As long as you can get down to the floor and up again you are fit enough! The aim is to undo all the stiffness and the stresses that have accumulated in our bodies over the years to improve strength and suppleness.
We start with lots of gentle warm up stretches and exercises to improve the breathing. This is followed by stronger stretches that you can do at your own level, and its always fine to miss something out! We end with a period of relaxation.
Classes are small to allow for individual attention and cost £7 a session.
I am a British Wheel teacher with 15 years experience especially of teaching older students or those with health problems. You are welcome to come to just one class to try it when I can provide a mat, otherwise students will need to bring their own. Please wear loose clothing and bring something warm to wear/or to cover yourself for the relaxation.
