Weekly Scottish Country Dance classes

A friendly way to start the weekend! Come as you are, no need for a partner. Scottish Country Dance ranges from very easy dances to mind-challenging ones. The two hours start off with all-level teaching (aimed primarily at beginners), then move on to intermediate and advanced.

Teaching is in French, but every formation is walked through even if you don’t speak French - and many in the group will be happy to speak English.

Every Friday at 7pm from September to June. Check our website for precise dates and times and also updates on our tariffs.

Libre Résistance – SOE F Section (c/o Royal British Legion)

Unveiling of a plaque to commemorate the 80th anniversary of the execution of Major Francis SUTTILL

Suttill, SOE F-Section, was the creator and leader of the Prosper network based in Paris, France, from October 1942 until June 1943. The purpose of SOE in France was to recruit resistance groups and supply them with arms and material in order to carry out sabotage against Nazi Germany.

Under Suttill's leadership the Prosper network was SOE's most important network in France. Suttill was captured by the Germans in his lodgings at 18 rue de Mazagran in Paris on 24 June 1943 as part of a huge roundup of resistance agents. After suffering months of torture Suttill was sent to the Sachenhausen concentration camp and executed in March 1945.
