We have a fresh new look, but more importantly moving across to a WordPress-based site has added loads of functionality and after a trial period the new site is now live.

Keep an eye on this page for the latest upcoming events and committee news. Head over to the forum to see what people are chatting about and register to start posting your own topics and replies.

All the old content has been moved over and the site layout is mostly unchanged; however all the committee members can now write news items. We also need your help to make the forum as lively and welcoming as it is along the avenues! :) If you’re stuck, have a look at the help page.
