Dorset Humanists - Short Talks Programme

The opening event of this programme will be on Wednesday 19 April 2017 at 7.30pm in the Green House Hotel. These first two speakers are presenting intriguing ideas that will be new to most of us, so we can expect a stimulating evening. There are links to short summary articles and relevant videos below so that you can come prepared with questions for the speakers. We will allow about an hour altogether for each topic including the talk and Q&A/discussion.

We would like to request a donation of £2 each on the door please to put towards the venue costs.
