LHNCC April meeting: members only, via Zoom

The next LHNCC meeting will be on Tuesday 28 April, at 7pm, via Zoom.

  •  Because LHNCC is currently learning how to conduct meetings online, this will be a members-only ‘discussion’ meeting.
    • LHNCC welcomes public input in advance via the website contact-form at https://lhncc.org.uk/contact-us/.
    • Public input is equally welcome at any time after the meeting.
  • An agenda will be circulated in due course, both by email and via a post on this website.

LHNCC is aware that online meetings exclude those who cannot access them, whatever the reason. However, this is the best it can offer under the current circumstances.
