Rangers From The South West

Author: Jim Hardcastle

Jim has a simple desire; help you and your organisation communicate more effectively. He responds well to outdoor adventure, savoury snacks and good coffee. Scandinavian design and packing lots of things into a small space interest me at the moment.

We've helped raise the event from a lovely informal social gathering to a lovely informal social gathering with a sprinkling of training and awareness raising.

We've given the Forum a digital focus. Hopefully we'll dispel a few myths, cure some technophobes and open some eyes to future possibilities. Rangers from Dartmoor, Exmoor, Cornwall, the south coast and Quantock are coming. Les Davies MBE is also helping out with one of his unforgettable walks in the afternoon.

More soon. If you feel left out ask me to send you the leaflet for the day. Jim@vmcg.co.uk
