Committee Vacancies
Several long-standing members of your Committee decided not to stand for re-election at the AGM or to retire from that date.
Thankfully, a number of members have come forward to fill the vacancies. However, the Society still needs a full-time Chairperson, Secretary, Web-Support and a leader for the demonstrations sub-committee. Volunteers are also required to provide practical help at demonstrations exhibitions. If you feel you could take on one of these roles please contact the Society Secretary.

Castle Park Arts Centre is a very nice venue under the cliff at Frodsham. There is live music in the courtyard frequently throughout the summer, and nice walks in the park, refreshments, and things on which to feast your eyes – perfect for a summery outing with friends.
