News and Events

The Edwalton PROBUS Club has been based at Welbeck Hall since July 2021. Although not actually located in Edwalton, due to the lack of a suitable venue, our roots began 30 years ago and remain there. Our current base on the banks of the River Trent suits our needs admirably with ideal accommodation, catering and parking. We hope that this venue will continue to fulfil our needs for many years to come.

Our yearly programme includes both member and resourced non-member external Speakers and entertainers as listed on this website.

Consequently our meeting arrangements are achieving the aims of Edwalton PROBUS Club.
