Region 21 members,
This is a brief update to remind you that our June Monthly meeting will be on Tuesday 5th June at The Rose and Crown, Hawridge, Chesham, Buckinghamshire, HP5 2UG, 01494 758944. As usual we will start around 7.30pm but for those wanting to eat it is best to arrive earlier.
This month we have Peter Barton who is a club member from the Institute of Advanced Motorists (IAM) and some of his colleagues, giving an informal talk on how the IAM process works and some information on an opportunity for club members to complete a course. They will have some leaflets etc to hand out and will also provide information on a day of assessment drives, that would be run from the Open University in Milton Keynes. They will provide more information on this, and possible dates during the evening.
