Unfortunately, Anne Prescott has Covid so the entertaining morning she had planned had to be postponed. Thank you to Peter Kirkwood for taking the meeting in my place, and to Simon for stepping in to an opportunity to showcase the work he has been doing on the stallholder website.
It is a mammoth effort, and one which not only reflects the expertise that Simon brings to our club but also the professionalism of the Fair organisation.

Our Club Runner platform is in the process of a 'makeover" - a new version - "Nova" will be fully launched in 2025.

Much of this is explained in the recent webinar accessible via this link: NOVA
