Following CSSC's AGM on Tuesday 14 June, important and very exciting changes to CSSC' s membership rules will come into play shortly. This includes expansion of our membership to allow all public sector workers to join CSSC, in addition to all armed forces personnel who were allowed to join earlier this year. That's only a part of the story though and further announcements, including great recruitment incentives for all existing members, will be circulated soon.
Whether you' ve been with CSSC for weeks or years, watch out for more details!
There have also been some great developments within the Eastern Region. Online Shopping is now live, allowing you to buy cinema tickets and a range of other benefits with a simple click of a button! It was also agreed at the Eastern Region Volunteer Workshop on 23/24 May to amend our Subsidy & Expenses Scheme for National, Regional, and Open Events. To find out more about what this entails, please read below.

Eastern Region Expenses & Subsidy Scheme Entering a CSSC event? Did you know you can obtain expenses? Following a successful pilot scheme run by the Eastern Region, it has been agreed to introduce a common subsidy and expenses scheme to provide financial assistance to CSSC members taking part in CSSC Regional and National Open Events.
This means that, no matter where you live or work within the Eastern Region, you can know up front what help you may be able to claim and know that you will get the same amount of help as colleagues in other parts of the Region.
To see the guidance notes and claim form, simply click here for more information

If you don't receive your copy by 31 August 2011, contact headoffice@cssc.co.uk quoting your membership number and home address.
Eastern Region Workshop
I would like to thank all those volunteers who attended CSSC Eastern Region's Workshop at West Runton, Cromer, on 23/24 May. The agenda was full with items ranging from suggesting Regional tokens that could be added to the Online Shopping platform, extending the Regional Expenses & Common Subsidy Scheme and finalising strategies to ensure the smooth running of regional sports events. Stevenage AA was also awarded the 'Area Association of the Year Award' and the committee are now hoping to progress and engage with their members even more over the next year. If you would like to get involved in volunteering, please contact Luke Roberts
Suggestion InBox Is there a sporting activity or a leisure interest that you cannot find on our website that you would like to be involved in? We are continually encouraging more suggestions and ideas for sports or leisure activities to be run within the Region, so please let me know by sending an email to Luke Roberts or phone 07951 342034.
Introducing Online Shopping - Explore the Benefits
You can now buy your cinema tickets, and a range of other token benefits on line. Tickets are fully inclusive of VAT, postage and packaging and card charges; and at the same price to all members wherever they may live or work in the Southern Region.
