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 held at Chesterfield Community Centre on the second Tuesday of the month. Light refreshments are available from 6.30 p.m. and the talk or demonstration will commence at 7.15 p.m.
You can read a selection of reviews and articles of past CPSG talks and demonstrations.
