The Christ Church ThinkTank has been meeting since 2005. The first meeting was on 5th October 2005 and the subject was “The Causes of Terrorism, particularly between Arabs and Jews”. Plus ça change.
The ThinkTank draws on speakers from all the churches and other institutions in the Lewes area. Our speakers provide their services without charge, so our meetings are free and open to all. Whether you go to church or not, join us whenever the topic interests you.
Our meetings are usually held in the church and are also available via Zoom. All meetings are from 7.30 pm to 9 pm. The format is 45 minutes talk and 45 minutes discussion.. .
If you would like to attend any of our meetings by Zoom, please email the Church Secretary for further details.
