Committee Member John Reynolds has provided the following information:

The Society's Computer Group meets at Trinity Church, Gaynes Road, Upminster from 11.00am - 1:15 pm on the First Saturday of each month. (Note: This is prior to the Havering Branch meeting that starts at 2:00pm).

Trinity Church Hall, Upminster is next to Rooms Stores and is two minutes walk from the Upminster Underground Station (end of the District Line). At 11:00am we start with Q&A and members problems. And from 12:00am until 1:00pm we will have a talk or other demonstration.

This change was brought about because many members still wished to ask question after the meeting had finished, which interfered with the preparations for the following Havering Branch meeting. On average we now have over 60 members attending these group meetings.

The meetings are intended to provide a self-help group i.e. I don't know the answer but, I know someone who does. However members and visiting lecturers give a varied program of Q & A sessions, talks and demonstrations on a number of subjects. To provide added interest to these talks we have the use of a data projector so everyone is able to see what's going on without the need to crowd around small monitors.

The meetings are open to all society members, but we would ask you to bring either your membership card if you have one or a magazine envelope to verify your membership.

Visitors are also welcome for which an entrance fee of £1.50 is charged.
