WCS Members Our members take an interest in the Civic affairs of our district, by supporting the activities of our various committees (see WCS Management below), participating in meetings and attending civic events.
Many members (and non-members) further enhance their enjoyment of our local civic environment by participation as volunteers at The Nothe Fort Museum and The Tudor House Museum.
As important and interesting features of our local built environment, the Museums presents members with the opportunity to get to know and work alongside other like minded enthusiasts.
