Equipment

The Society has a number of pieces of equipment available for members to borrow.

As the amount of equipment has recently risen, we have changed the way in which equipment is now held and made available to members. Each piece is held by a designated member to look after it. If you wish to borrow the equipment, please contact that member. The member's name will be listed in the details below.
