Nothing beats face to face contact at a meeting. We have seen a number of projects instantly take off when members meet and realise they have silimar interests and can help each other. The first meeting is free and is classed as a trial, if you like what you see and want to come again you can, all we ask is that you pay a £5 fee for each meeting you attend.
