WAS News

WAS News is the Society's monthly publication, created by the members, for the members, and distributed approximately one week before the monthly meetings. Not only does it contain all the latest Society information & news, a monthly almanac and a review of the previous month's lecture, it is also filled with members' contributions.

We operate a minimal printing policy, so as far as possible, we try to distribute WAS News via email. If you are a member of WAS and do not currently receive it by email, please contact the Membership Secretary with your details, and you will be added to the distribution list. This will ensure that you receive it as soon as it comes off the press!
