Online Community Updates
Sunday 24th January 11:00am - 12:00 noon
Dear members, readers and visitors all!
We launched theOnline Communityin its current format just under a year ago. There was a huge rush to see what the new forums looked like and we finally settled down to around 75,000 visitors each month. Since then, there have been over 3,000 new members join our Community.
And We're Still Growing
The Community has also had new categories added to it, most notably the launch of the Coronavirus forum that was set up in the week of lockdown in March 2020.
Over 60% of all visitors come to the Online Community using either a tablet or phone. We also plan to add more categories to the Community. This all means we need to make some changes. Scrolling down an ever increasing list just makes life difficult in trying to find where to post and what to read.
By simplifying the list of categories, we hope you’ll find it easier to find your way around the community.

When do the changes take place?
We will be updating the Community on

The Community will be "read only" whilst we make these changes but this should only last for a maximum of one hour.
