Summerway Updates Navigation Page

Updates are issued, as and when, to all Summerway email groups: Committee, Families, Supporters and Watchers.  To show that everything is open and above board, it seems a good idea to post the updates on our campaign website as time permits.  Thus, everyone having an interest may keep abreast of developments.
