The Umbrella club started out in 1984 to keep a group of friends from Birmingham University in touch with each other. Many of us lived in Birmingham and kept in touch with
the Wayfarers so that by the end of the 1980s we had a membership of the last 10 years of Wayfarers. It works simply by just issuing a news letter telling people a campsite and date to meet on or picking on a person
who will organise a cottage if you want to contact them and join in. This simple technique has kept us going for 15 years.
