RISC OS User Groups ...




We hope to produce an authoritative list of RISC OS users groups throughout the world. We will not add a group to the list unless we are assured by those organising or taking part in the groups that a group is currently active. Extracts from this list will be published regularly in Acorn Publisher magazine. Please e-mail me to correct details, add meeting dates, or inform me of groups not shown here.

Most Users Groups are affiliated to AAUG - the Association of Acorn User Groups.

Derbyshire RISC OS Group
ICENI Computer Club
RISC OS North West UG
RISC OS User Group of London
Southampton Acorn UG
Wakefield RISCOS CC

Until we set up the diary dates pages we will include dates of some group meetings here.

There is no charge to User Groups for an inclusion of their group details here or in Acorn Publisher magazine.
Please send details of your group to the Acorn Publisher editor.

    Short details



    We know that following clubs have current meetings but they have not yet sent us details of their organisation. We do not know if details on their web-sites are up to date:

    NB The North Kent web-site caused problems with Fresco and Webster XL when we tested them so we cannot guarantee that you will be able to get in touch through this site. We will add further (better?) details as soon as possible.
