Concerts and events

During the course of the year there’s a series of social events at Launde. This year there’s also a series of fund-raising concerts.

In a typical year the social events include Snowdrop Afternoons in the early spring, meals marking St Valentine’s Day, Mothering Sunday and Easter. There are usually open days at the spring and late summer bank holiday weekends, with regular Sunday afternoon teas during the summer months. December sees a series of Christmas lunches which are usually very popular.
