TravelWatch NorthWest is a cousin of our own TravelWatch SouthWest and I have been along once or twice in the past to learn about how they do things and to pick up national ideas - and we have welcomed their directors at TWSW» (TravelWatch SouthWest - website) too.  Knowing we get some out-of-area guests in our Taunton meetings, adding the TWNW▸ (TravelWatch NorthWest) dates here just in case

We are planning on further conferences on 26th June in Southport and on 25th September in Lancaster

As someone bred and born in Southport, and Lisa and I spend the first night of our honeymoon there, I have a fondness for the place.

In the days when I was ambulant, I attended their meetings fairly frequently. More difficult now as they meet some way away from rail stations
