List of Branches in the Eastern region

Our Region

Eastern Region comprises sixteen branches in Norfolk, Suffolk, Cambridgeshire, Essex, Hertfordshire and Bedfordshire, stretching from London's borders to the most easterly coasts of Britain. This makes us a small region in terms of branch numbers, but we are big on enthusiasm and commitment. We have a flourishing range of events open to all members in the region.
