The group meets on the fourth Monday evening each month at Poole Civic Centre, but if you don't like meetings, there are a number of ongoing practical projects where we would be very pleased to see you.
If your organisation or group would like to find out more about the aims and projects of Poole LA21, please contact us, we would be pleased to come and talk about our work.
For those with a technical bent, you may be interested in the work of Poole Technical Group. They helped us out with our stall on the thursday evenings last summer on Poole Quay, and run seminars and workshops on Technology issues.
To find out more about any of our projects, contact 01202 633062 or LA21 volunteers
