The Roysia Share Club which has about 10 members has been running in the town for over 20 years and meets in the Old School House, Royston once a month on the 3rd Wednesday at 8pm.
The main purpose of the club is to join together to learn much more about how stock markets work and to make joint investments in stocks and shares, and other investments.
Each member makes a monthly investment of £25 which is pooled with other members’ monthly investments to buy and sell shares.
If you are looking to learn more about the Stock Market, this is the Club for you.

Royston Cave is an enigma. No records of its age or purpose exist.
Some theories suggest it was used by the Knights Templars, others by King James I and the Freemasons. Discovered by accident in 1742, Royston Cave has continued to baffle visitors for centuries. Man-made and beehive shaped; the cave is cut 30ft into the chalk that underlies Royston’s ancient crossroad, Ermine Street and Icknield Way.
The cave contains an extensive range of medieval wall carvings representing the Crucifixion, the Holy Family and several saints including St Katherine, St Laurence and St Christopher.
Only open on Saturdays, Sundays and Bank Holidays from the first weekend in April through until last weekend in September.
Entry by guided tour only.
See website for details.
