Seal Group Meeting 9
'Reducing disturbance' : Our 10 point plan
The latest meeting took place on 13th July 2005 at the CPR Learning Space, Cranberry Road, Camborne. We are beginning to outgrow Sue's lounge, so we've moved to a bigger venue. We were pleased to welcome 3 more new people, all with an interest in seals!
If you would like to become an active member of the Seal Group, want to come to our next meeting, have any information for us, want to ask us a question about the seals you see or just want to say you support what we are doing, we'd love to hear from you. Contact us by emailing ssayer@suesseals.eclipse.co.uk
