H
averhill and District Flower Club, is celebrating its 45th Anniversary in 2008. The Club started up in March 1963 and has grown from strength to strength.

We are affiliated to the East of England Area Association of NAFAS (National Association of Flower Arrangement Societies). NAFAS is a registered charity and in 2009 will be celebrating its Golden Anniversary.

We are a friendly Club, with over 62 members, with a big heart just waiting to welcome you to our meetings so that you can share the joy of flowers.

It is a myth that you have to be a flower arranger to join a Club; many of our members had no experience at all when they joined. Soon you will gain knowledge just by watching our wonderful demonstrators or by taking part in the workshops that we regularly organise.

For those that do take up the challenge, a new world opens to them. Many hours we have shared taking part in Flower Festivals, Competitions or fundraising for our Club.

We meet at Haverhill Arts Centre on the first Monday of the month, the complete programme for next year is displayed on this website. Visitors are always welcome.
At each meeting we have a NAFAS demonstrator, followed by light refreshments and the floral displays created, are raffled at the end of the evening.
 

 

 

Display at the Chelsea Flower Show 2007
 

In 2007 our Club took part, for the first time in the Floral Art Competition at the Chelsea Flower Show. We are very proud to say that we were awarded a Bronze Medal by the Royal Horticultural Society.

 
We also organise trips to places of interest or shows and we hold an annual Floral Art Competition.
We also have social events to bring members together.

 
 
 

  If you are interested, why not come along and see what we are about or if you
prefer give us call.
