The Society
for
Hand-Turned Organ Owners and Enthusiasts
You may already have heard the sad news that John Smith - creator of many organ designs for amateur builders and a very active member of BOGA from the early days - has died.
His widow, Julia, has advised that although a small private funeral will take place, a Memorial event is to be arranged, but that this will be at a later date when, hopefully, the Covid and weather situations have improved. Details will be posted here when they are known.

The current trend on the Internet is to use 'Secure' connections (https rather that http) which use encryption of data being exchanged between a site's host and internet users.
This is to prevent hackers accessing sites to steal financial/identity data, etc.
The Not Secure message or unlocked/crossed padlock symbol is used by web browsers to indicate that a non encrypted connection is being used.
As BOGA does not store any personal or financial details for anyone accessing its site, for this reason it does not need an encrypted connection.
