The ELRC Committee have continued working behind the scenes, all are volunteers, working tirelessly for you. The Club is run by its members for its members and the New Committee is sorry that once again this year, you have been unable to air your views at the AGM, which should have been tonight.

There have been a number of members who have expressed their thought and concerns this week, via social media, emails and calls, we, as the New Committee will take on board these views.

We are always looking for volunteers to help out at events and to join the Committee, we have a number of tasks most are not too onerous, so if you would like to take a more active role, including the opportunity to take on the role as Chair, please message us via the Contacts page on the website or to secretary@elrc.info

ALRC Notification – Payments for log booking

We have had a recent communication from the ALRC about payments for log booking of CCV and Comp Safari vehicles. Please see below:-

At the ALRC Council meeting held on the 12 June 2021 the issue of payment for the log booking of CCVT / Comp Safari vehicles was discussed as there have been several payments that have not been able to be processed.

In future all payments should be made in cash to the log book scrutineer at the time of the check taking place – £5 for a five year re-check and £10 for the second signature on a new build.  Payments for any changes of name and address should still be sent direct to Dennis Wright.
