The Warwick Probus Club No 1 has elected its new chairman.

Following its AGM on March 15 at the Old Fourpenny Shop Hotel in Crompton Street in Warwick, the club elected Andrew Cooper for a term of office.

Andrew was congratulated by his fellow members, including former Chairman Andy Syson.

Probus is an organisation of clubs where retired and semi-retired businessmen can meet up monthly for socialising and to listen to a guest speaker.

The origins of Warwick Probus Club No 1 go back to 1969, when a group of local government officers began lunchtime meetings. When others joined, it formally became a Probus Club.

The club meets on the third Wednesday of the month and along side meetings, members are involved in activities such as; theatre visits, factory and historic visits, walking and cycling.
