It was great to see all the people who visited our stand over the four days we were at Silverstone. Visitors from France, Italy, Switzerland and Belgium, as well as founder members and more recent members who we hadn't seen for a long time.  We signed up new members, gave out over a hundred information packs and spoke to several potential members (from the age of 8!)

On the Thursday Sue TP-Jamieson was interviewed by John Griff of Northants 96 on his afternoon show, promoting the BWRDC and the whole event at Silverstone.
