Judy Challis - Regional Networks
• Most Regions now have a Chair or share the role• Regional Minutes now published on the website• More flexibility as to which regional meetings are
attended– Maybe go to a meeting which is more
geographically convenient– Maybe go to a meeting which is more convenient
timewise– To this end we ask that Chairs decide dates and
venues amongst their own regional members but then tell the whole database when it is to be, so others can join you if they wish.
