The Wakefield RISC OS Computer Club provides a friendly face for all things RISC OS in Yorkshire, the surrounding regions and beyond. Originally formed as the Wakefield BBC Micro User Group in 1983, it is one of the longest established RISC OS user groups and now has members all over the UK.
The group meets most months to look at subjects relating to RISC OS, publishes a monthly newsletter, The WROCC, and provides an online discussion group to keep its members informed. We used to organise the annual Wakefield RISC OS Computer Show.
For more information about the group, contact us or visit one of our meetings. You can find out more about RISC OS in our brief introduction to the operating system or discover new hints, tips and tricks in our RISC OS HowTo.
