New Website Update

by John PrettyAnnouncementsPosted on Comments are Disabled

As many of you know the committee decided that our website needed an update and a working party was set up to achieve this. Most of the work has now been completed and we will be ready to switch over on the 10th June, fingers crossed.

We still have a number of tasks to complete and due to this and booked holidays, how selfish, we are unable to post anything to the website from 18th May – 10th June.

We hope you all understand and normal service to the new website will be resumed after the 10th June.
