A website for CHAIN
Created by David Piper, in the past CHAIN had some pages on Brian Davis’s website Hungerford.net but when the Townsite was started David felt that CHAIN was not being represented properly so started up this website in Dreamweaver, hosted by Brian.
In early 2020 the site was changed to WordPress and with the impending retirement of both Brian and David (December 2021) we are now hosted by Brixly who offer their platform free of charge to CHAIN as a charity.
