Worth to Note

Our association has always been run purely for the benefit of the members and as such no profits are made. This enables us to keep down the subscription costs. Thus it is only with the help of members in such activities as assisting on the committee, assisting as bailiffs or working on bank clearing that we can all make things work. Please contact any current committee member if you feel you can give even a small input to KAA.
