The Objects of the Society are the maintaining and increasing of interest in Lancashire Dialect. Monthly Meetings, the usual format for meetings is:
A welcome to all from the evening's Chairman, (a different one every week); a rendition (or should that be rending?) of Edwin Waugh's song "A lift on the Way", followed by a reading of a poem or extract from one of Waugh's works by a pressed volunteer and then the 'parish notices' from the Secretary.
The Guest for the evening then entertains, a vote of thanks is given and a second Waugh song, the most appropriate "Toddlin' Whom", ends the evening about 9.15 pm.
After this, in the immortal words of our previous President Jack Lye, " Tha con aw Pike off whom neaw!"
