More Information (WCR FM is not responsible for external websites)

Our first talk of the New Year is all about Wolverhampton’s Road to City Status!

Delivered by former TWS Chairman Suhail Rana, the talk uses archived government papers, emails and reports to show the efforts the city fathers took to try and get us recognised, why they initially failed and how it eventually achieved the status it thoroughly deserved.

Do join us at the Penn Bowling and Social Club on Thursday, 15th January at 7:15pm for a 7:30pm start. 

Please note that prior to the talk will be the Society AGM, so the talk itself will commence at 8:00 pm. Whilst non-members are welcome to attend the AGM, only members can vote at the AGM.
