Loughton CC has enjoyed a varied programme during the pandemic. “We took advantage of the wider area that could be covered with Zoom, and managed to have a lecture from America and a competition with an Australian club,” says Thelma Banks, the club’s publicity secretary. “Next season, we are having hybrid meetings to start with. Members can meet at our usual Lopping Hall venue, but those who prefer not to go into an indoor situation can join in from home. Of course, everything depends on the situation in September.” loughtoncameraclub.org.uk LoughtonCC
