The discussion seems to have come up with a comprehensive list, which I am happy to support. Nigel makes a good point, and perhaps we could say explicitly that we want a choice of communication mechanisms and ways of being involved. RAISE sets a good example here - offering both physical and virtual discussion opportunities, plus hard copy info going out to members which they can respond to on paper or by phone as well as going to meetings and using the web site.

Respect for and knowledge of the vol/com sector are keys for me. There seem to be good people working for the LSCs around those things but also oceans of ignorance and disrespect. Summed up for me in a conversation with someone from the LSC's publications department who was really pleased at the money they'd saved by posting a discussion document on the website and really restricting circulation of hard copies: oblivious to the consequences of that for vol/coms wanting to get involved.
