Newport Franco British Society

Since our aim is to further cultural relations with France and to strengthen members' knowledge of France, the French language and the French way of life we have regular lectures, in French, on varied aspects of French culture - literature, art, music - or travel in France - or the French language - or, indeed any aspect of French life or history.
