Sci-fi, fantasy, comics, games and all that stuff

Pay no attention to the people behind the curtain...

So, this is the part of the website for the Fellowship. If you're one of us, there'll be some useful links and information here for you.

If you're not in the Fellowship then, to be honest, you may find other pages on the site more interesting. But since you're here, feel free to look around and if you like what you see, join us.

Updates

Highlights from the last fellowship meeting (23 July)

Ploigh outreach session at Barvas went well. About 30 children attended. Thanks to everyone who came along to help.
HebCelt: The tent looked great and the activities worked really well. Hundreds of people visited us and we gave out about 300 promo badges. Again, massive thanks to everyone who helped. For next year, we need to think about having more of us setting up the tent on the first day, and shifting the rotas so that there are more people on in the evening and fewer for early afternoon. We will work out the approximate cost of running the tent so we can make an informed decision on attending next year (if we're asked).
Proposals for this year's OH!CON programme are now closed. The draft programme is further down the page. If you are intending to do something at OH!CON and it isn't shown there, you need to get in touch with us urgently. If you've proposed an activity, we'll be in touch shortly to get more details from you.
Training sessions for team leaders and volunteers will be announced soon.

Dates

Next Fellowship meeting: 7:15pm, 27 August at An Lanntair.

Next Bridge Crew: Thursday 13 August 6pm at Stornoway Business Hub
