Unit Revival Continues to Build

Spurred on by the enthusiasm and commitment from our four 'revivalists', this year has seen a full and varied programme of activites enjoyed (for the most part!) by a growing unit membership. This culminated in an exciting summer expedition to that favourite land of water, rock and tree - Norway.  Look out for the Expedition Special V44 early in September!

Speaking of magazines, this year has seen four editions published - making up for the near two-year gap of its absence.
