Other members of the Committee are: Richard Plumb, Laurie Rutman, Sarah Andrews and Catherine Owens

Members continued discussion about the issues of significance for the town which the association can research and seek to deal with, in collaboration and cooperation with other bodies. This work will range from responses to current pressing problems to forward looking thinking and planning in relation to trends and developments which are likely to affect the town and the interests of everyone who lives here.

A report has been sent to members about the organisation and the plans now underway for the association. Information about  meetings, and about how the association is working on issues identified by members will also be included on the new WRA website winchelseaRA.com which will be launched soon.
