The Wren Group's new-look Website
The Wren Group's new look website pages are now online. Here, you will find a source of information about the Group's activities, learn about forthcoming Wren Group Events and find out how to join the Group.
Please use the Contact Us page to let the website administrator know your thoughts about the site. Is it what the Group wants? What could be done differently? What else could be included?
Without feedback - particularly from the Group's Committee and Members - it must be questioned as to what value the website is at all.
PLEASE COMMENT!
