Hello everyone,

Happy New Year!  Welcome to our first community update for 2021. I hope you all had a restful holiday break and were able to
spend time with loved ones.  

A big thank you to all of our group leaders and major
contributors who were able to log in from time to time over the festive season
to ensure that any new members were welcomed online and that our existing
members remained well supported. 

A very warm welcome to all of our new members who joined our
online community over the last month. You will find a friendly, welcoming and
supportive online community.  

The  Community
Info
 tab in the top blue navigation bar has information that can help you navigate
the online forum and our community guidelines. 
You can read current and past threads by other members or post questions
or comments in the main discussion forum. 
You are also welcome to visit and join some of the other groups that are
