Please note that, because many of our speakers are involved in work-related travel, this program may change at short notice. Should a speaker be unavailable, we will try to replace that person with someone speaking on a similar subject. All meetings will be held at the Shenton Park Community Centre (Perth metropolitan area) unless otherwise advised. No regional meetings have been scheduled for 2006 but, should one be organised, it will be advertised on ABC Radio in the Kimberley.
