Group enjoy talk on lady racing drivers

-

In January The Friends of Worthing Museum greeted Richard Atkins for his offbeat talk – ‘Lady Racing Drivers 1900-1939’.

A spokesman said, “They were brave driving with no floor, cobbled together seating and scant braking power. It was great seeing photograph­s of events and fashions of the day. Scary movie footage of the Brooklands track where Barbara Cartland raced demonstrat­ed these ladies’ driving skills.” The next meeting takes place on February19 at 2.30pm for Rev Tony Trevithick’s talk ‘Prison Chaplaincy’. Venue Worthing Library Lecture Theatre.
