We would like to welcome the recent influx of new followers...
Welcome to all things NSE related , past and present! 🟥🟦⬜

We moved earlier this year from a membership group to having a supporters group that won't cost a penny to join.
Updates will be emailed out to you and there is the choice of joining our WhatsApp group to receive regular updates.

This brings with it the chance to volunteer at events ( We recently had some new supporters join us stewarding on the Southeastern Networker tour )
