People who want to learn to speak French in a quiet and relaxed environment can join in with a free club.

The Borehamwood and Elstree Twin Town Association is relocating its monthly club from the Ibis Hotel to Number 96, in Shenley Road.

Classes are held with a native French speaker and a basic knowledge of the language is required.

BETTA chair Martine Eni said: "This is a fantastic opportunity for local people to practice and improve their spoken French, in a friendly and supportive atmosphere, while also learning more about French culture.”

The club meets on the last Tuesday of every month, from 2pm to 4pm. All sessions are free.
