Members who feel they can give more to the Society are very welcome to seek positions on the Committee or help with running events.<\/p>\n<p>Members can meet at each other at one of the social events or on one of our other events, such such as talks, walks and visits to buildings of architectural or historic interest, often those seldom open to the public. Members also receive a twice-yearly newsletter, highlighting recent activities and other issues with which we have been involved. Members are welcome to submit any items relating to Bournemouth&#8217;s past, present or future to be considered for inclusion in the newsletter.<\/p>\n<h2>How can I become a member?<\/h2>\n<p>We would love you to get involved and support our work!
