Group reopening

We have made the decision today to reopen the group to new members having felt like the two month experiment in capping membership has not worked out. Our statement:

As of today we're going to lift the restriction on new members so if you've asked to be added to the waiting list you can now feel free to try attending the group for the first time when it suits.

 

It seems clear that the main effect of capping membership has been to scare off some of our regulars which was never the intention. Clearly our approach was too heavy-handed and we apologise for that, as well as for any confusion and anxiety that has been caused.

 

The last thing we want or wanted is to lose people from our excellent community, we were simply trying to keep it manageable. We want to emphasise to everyone that, while we have the function room as our official booking, the pub management are fine with us spilling out of that room to other areas if need be.

 

If numbers do go back to increasing at the same rate they were at the start of the year, we may have to have a serious discussion about how the group is managed moving forward, but for now we're going back to "normal" and we'll see how we go.

 

- Steve and Alastair.
