Branches
Branches are the local face of the Society. While membership of a Branch is by no means mandatory, members are encouraged to join a local Branch if there is one close to them. If there is none, they may consider forming a new Branch. All Branch meetings are open to all members of the Society. Members get together usually once a month and discuss or try a particular printing topic, chat about most aspects of printing and generally give each other help and encouragement. Some Branches hold annual Open Days where items of printing and equipment are sold. Further details of Branches are provided to members on joining the Society. About half of the Branches have their own page - their contents are determined by the Branch and any comment should be made to the contact shown on the appropriate page. Visit the following pages to see a list of Society Branches that have provided information for the British Printing Society website.
