Every year during the non-summer months the Amersham Society organises lectures. Usually we meet in the Kings Chapel and occasionally in St Mary’s Church. Between April 2020 and February 2022 our meetings were held online via Zoom.
With permission of the speakers the video recordings of these talks are now available to our members on demand. To watch a video, please request a link from the list below.
