NEW MEMBERS' HANDBOOK

4/12/2011

It has been a few years since our New Members' Handbook has been updated. This is a fantastic resource for people new to Trinidad, giving information on a host of local services, shops, medical facilities etc.
If you have any ideas as to what should be included or names of shops, tradesmen, services or other useful contacts can you please let me know. I really need some feedback on this. Thanks!
Linda Hayton
Vice President

After some years of neglecting our web presence, the UKWC are finally getting our message out again. Thanks to Linda Hayton for gearing us into action. It's early days yet and we have some strategic thinking to do about how we want to present ourselves on the site, but at least we now have a presence!
We welcome comments from members and friends: compliments, suggestions, constructive critism are all welcome.
You can email comments to me or complete the contact form on the website. Comments on these blog posts can be added below...
If you have something you would like to post on the blog or include in the website under events, fundraising, welfare etc, please send it to me.
Looking forward to some lively discussions with you!
Rachel
