Our Work
Fircone provides opportunities to people aged 50 and over to enjoy learning, practising or sharing skills and activities in a relaxed atmosphere and at a pace that suits members.
This is done within a group of people where all are free to do this and to relate to one another and to share each others experience and needs.
There is a Fircone registration fee of £10.00, an annual renewal fee of £5.00 and a customary donation of £4.00 for each session attended.
Classes last for two hours unless stated overwise.
First 'taster' session is free of charge.
