Newsletter

This is an annual publication, free to members.  In recent years, it has been a 32-page booklet appearing towards the end of February, in time to be sent out to members along with the agenda for the Society's Annual General Meeting. Each issue contains reports on the year's activities and raises concerns from the Chairman, other officers and committee members, but usually, well over half the contents consist of articles and photos on a wide range of topics related to Restronguet & Penpol Creeks.

Copies of newsletters back to 1984 are available to read here. Take your time and enjoy learning more about the heritage and natural history of the Restronguet Creek.
