Members We currently have around 130 members, all of whom take an interest in the Civic affairs of our district, by supporting the activities of our various committees (above), participating in meetings and attending civic events.
Many members (and non-members) further enhance their enjoyment of our amazing civic environment by participation as volunteers at The Nothe Fort Museum and The Tudor House Museum.
As one of the most important and interesting features of our local built environment, the Fort Museum presents members with the opportunity to get to know and work alongside other like minded enthusiasts.
