Some activities may be subject to a limited number of attendees.

Help with computer related problems:
The iHelp (internet help) team provide assistance to members who are having internet or computer problems. iHelp is available from 10am to 3pm Monday to Friday. Full details are on the iHelp web pages.
Special Interest Groups (SIGs) :
Many of our activities are organised as meetings of members in Special Interest Groups (SIGs). A SIG is simply a group of members, usually living in the same geographic area, with a common interest.
Membership entitles you to attend any of our SIG meetings, and visitors are welcome to register for these meetings. You can see a detailed list of our currently active SIGs here, and a list of SIGs by meeting location here
