Local Area Members Networking

Area Meetings

Enjoy regular contact with other members locally at any of the area meetings and/or at one of our specialist groups. These get-togethers are a great way to make friends, develop useful connections, exchange ideas, plan for future events or share information.  You will be sure of a warm welcome, and can choose to attend whichever meetings are most convenient.

Please contact the Area Coordinator to confirm date and venue as these do change from time to time.
