Re: DCS AGM Oct 14th 2017

I'm amazed that no-one on here has commented on the astonishing letter received this week, detailing the financial mismanagement of the outgoing secretary and treasurer.

I am sure you are not alone. I had rather hoped that a password protected discussion board would be set up accessed from the member's area of the DCS website.

Re: Monmouthshire/South Wales Group?

Perhaps you should choose the pub as the hall does not provide a form of entertainment/refreshments and as you say, costs money. There is the DCS General Meeting on 2nd June is the end of May too close?

Post Movement Testing

If you live in Wales, would joining be of benefit to you?
