UBSS Online Newsletter - March 2025
The past month has seen a huge amount of caving, both close to home and further away, with Yorkshire being a popular destination, highlights being joint weekends with MUSC and UBMC as well as Northern CHECC. We’ve also had our AGM and a well attended Annual Dinner, bringing a wide spread of members from the last five decades of UBSS back to our old haunt, he Square Club. Special thanks to Joshitha for organising this, and a very big thank you to the trustees of the Oliver Lloyd Memorial Fund for making this an affordable event for students and recent graduates!
You can browse the newsletters using the dropdown lists on the left (or press ‘Menu’ on mobile).
The archive is also searchable.
The Monthly Online Newsletter
Since the beginning of 2019, we have produced a Monthly Email Newsletter which is sent to all members and other interested parties. Contents include the latest caving trips, slander/gossip, information on caving in general and the activities of the Society. Contributions of any nature (illustrations will particularly impress everyone!) are welcome and should be passed either to the newsletter editor or the secretary.
The Printed Newsletter Archive
Prior to 2019, the Newsletters were all in printed form, but all the known issues have been scanned and a full archive is available in this section. These cover the Society’s activities from 1919 to 2017 and are chock-full of interesting articles. Well worth a read.
Many of the printed Newsletters will not show up in the searchable archive; however a full bibliographic index of these has been compiled by Rosie Daniels and can be downloaded from here.
