NEWS
THE HBS WEBSITE IS CHANGING...
|
This will be the last update of the website in its current configuration. A major upgrade will be taking place from 4th to 6th February 2013 which will bring the website structure and features up to 2013 standard. Important features such as the searchability of the articles on the website are being added. In addition, there will be significant upgrades to the members' area of the website with at least one major new feature that will hopefully be of benefit to all members, especially those living outside the UK. |
