The CREG Journal, edited by Rob Gill, continues to be produced four times per annum with many articles of interest to cave scientists and technologists
The journal is free to download by BCRA Member
The next council meeting will be held on the 31st of January 2024 at 8pm
The December council meeting was rearranged for January as we had a number of meetings close together
Supporting BCRA
• How about volunteering to organise a field meeting?
• Or volunteering to organise an indoor event?
• We also have ongoing need for assistance with publicity and with IT / web matters
• How about making a donation to BCRA ? We recently had a very welcome substantial donation made to the BCRA library which will further support the processing and storing of caving information which is valuable to all members .

The next newsletter will be at the end of December so a Merry Christmas to all members
