| Value of MapRA printed newsletters. Before Covid we used to produce printed newsletters in March and December. You will have received one this March. Our committee asked me to survey members to find out how valuable or otherwise these are. Our options are to (a) continue with printed newsletters, (b) continue with them but distribute online only (c) not to produce printed news letters but rely on these weekly emails. Hence I’d be very grateful if you could reply to say whether or not you find the printed newsletters useful. |
