Branches
There are 26 branches across England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland organising a host of social events. They operate on a non-profit basis and there is usually a nominal fee to cover costs.
Members enjoy walks, talks, lunches, theatre visits and even holidays.
Branch Chairman meet once a year to discuss items of national interest and have the opportunity to raise issues with senior management. We are currently looking at the feasibility of setting up a new branch on the Isle of Man.
Find your nearest branch from the list below and see what events are planned, details of which can be obtained from the SPA Secretary.
