Essex Ham

Looking for information about amateur radio? Essex Ham offers news, details of training, helpful advice, a discussion forum, and lots of useful information. As part of their quest to make it easier for new people to get into the hobby, they offer a free Foundation Online Amateur Radio Training Course. A great way to get started! First met the founder of Essex Ham Peter M0PSX at Chelmsford Amateur Radio Society (CARS) where he was one of the instructors. It’s great being a member, some times there are field days where we get together and use radio kit and meet up with other members.

The Scout Association

Being a Scout is a way of life, it’s not just adults helping young people it’s a life program, I joined as a cub scout and never looked back. Made some great friends near and far and get more out than I have ever put in! Some don’t understand but when scouting works I believe there is not much better to be a part of.

Venturer Lodge No. 7897

Venturer Lodge No. 7897 is a Scouting Lodge based in Essex and is just down the road from Gilwell Scout Campsite and the Scout Infomation Center. Currently, I have just over a year before my turn at being master of the lodge, a role it will be an honor to have, and looking forward to being in the Big chair. Have made some amazing friends in Scouting, St John, and the Police.  It’s the next step in scouting!

The X-Men Clan had a number of servers back in the day, and a few of us got together to revive the fun, we don’t have all the maps that we once had and have tried to offer a great selection from what we have, to plan to have clan battles just for fun! Want to join? Just change your in-game name to X-Man (your favorite character) if there is more than one with that name it’s no problem it’s just for fun!
