Glossop Guild for enquiring minds
Glossop Lion 1847
Overview
The Glossop Guild was formed in 2009 to promote liberal education in and around the town.
Glossop is a former mill town at the northern end of the Peak District National Park in the United Kingdom. The Guild is a non-profit organisation which endeavours to promote a wide range of courses, all of which we provide for the interests and enlightenment of participants. The Guild aims to select tutors on the basis of their ability to present lively and challenging courses, as well as for their expertise and experience. Members and participants are encouraged to contribute their own views and engage in informative discussion. All courses are open to both members and non-members.
Mike Webb our chairman has organised the following events during the summer recess:-
1: A Days Outing to the Lead Mining Museum at Matlock Bath on 16th May 2023
2: Higher Flower Meadows Walk on 29th May & 2nd July
3: A Morning Walk Around Glossop on 10th June 2023

Another successful spring term is over and so we turn our attention to the autumn 2023 term. Maggie Mooney and the rest of the Guild committee have been hard at work compiling yet another diverse programme. This term we have more new faces on our lecturing team - There will be lots more lectures and courses this term which will be explained in full on our courses pages in due course.
Due to popular demand we have maintained a mix of online (Zoom) courses and venue courses based in Glossop. Courses commence on 25th September 2023 and run until the end of November.
