As you will see from the characters you will find below-the groups is made up of a lot of experts in their own field. Each period has someone who specialises in it and has done so for a considerable time.
We all have responsibility for something or other, and are all happy to support others in their particular endeavours or with their ideas.
Any enquiries about a particular period are passed to the expert in that field and they are very happy to talk to you in depth on their subject at events.
Having said that, most of us can double up in a different role if needs be and that lends us flexibility as a group.
As has been said elsewhere, we don't actively recruit as we are more interested in expertise and skill than numbers, but if you feel you have something to offer us and would like to talk, then please email or meet us at an event.
