It is a friendly club with a good range of club members of all levels of experience in bonsai as a hobby. They hold their meetings on the 2nd Tuesday of the month from 7.30pm at The Coleview Community Centre, Towcester Road, Stratton St Margaret, Swindon, SN3 4AS.

What another great Heathrow bonsai show, the 8th one and all credit to everyone who was involved in the show right from the initial preparation through to end result. There was a buzz from the outset with car parks over flowing with traders and exhibitors just before 8am and the high levels of activity continued throughout with over 450 visitors. The atmosphere was fun and friendly with bonsai talk on going in everywhere.
