The Tshwane branch held its first committee meeting of the year, and put the following preliminary plans in place (see tables below). Please note that much of this still needs to have final confirmation, but it gives a clear indication of what’s ahead and what to diarise in the coming months. The gaps will be filled in as the year progresses.
