To join via the web, you will have to follow a link which will guide you to install Zoom. You will then automatically be connected to the meeting. Phone-in numbers will be provided for those wishing to join via the phone. Note however, that the presentation involves slides that you won’t see on the phone.

Rules of play
The meetings routinel involve 50 or more people on a large telephone / web conference call. To make this work, we have to observe a few ground rules:
- Please mute your microphone unless you are talking
- Post questions and comments to the forum for the meeting (you will need to have registered to do so). Feel free to discuss issues on the forum at any time (before, during and after the meeting). During the meeting, the moderator will call on you in the order in which the questions are submitted and will also allocate time for people who call in via telephone to comment or ask questions.
