As one of the inaugural members I would like to to thank all the people that showed interest and the people attending the first AGM and the launch yesterday on 22 June 2017 .This will be a date to remember ,though small all organisations have to start some where.
I would also like to thank Michael Tellinger for making our launch an interesting event with the presentation on the stone circles
