Talks & Demonstrations
CPSG runs a monthly programme of talks, demonstrations and videos relating to the paranormal. The group's secretary arranges for a different speaker to join us at each meeting, in order to give a talk on, or to demonstrate, a particular aspect of the subject. Potential new members are welcome to join us at these meetings, except where otherwise indicated. Further enquiries about the programme should be addressed to the secretary, whose details can be found under About.
The group’s main meetings are currently held on the second Friday of the month in the Walton Room of Chesterfield Community Centre, South Place, Chesterfield at 7.15 p.m, except where stated otherwise in the current programme. Light refreshments are included in the subscription. Occasionally, special evenings are also held on the fourth Friday of the month, as shown in the current programme.
You can read a selection of reviews and articles of past CPSG talks and demonstrations.
