The April 2020 issue of English Bridge is out now and will be delivered to eligible members in the next few days.
We hope you enjoy it, though you will note that most of it was written before the current situation with COVID-19 developed. The April issue was sent to our printers prior to the escalation of the current pandemic situation. With this in mind, there are some competitions mentioned in this issue that have now been cancelled.
We would also like to take this opportunity to inform you that due to the current situation, the June issue of English Bridge will be sent online only. We will keep you informed of any further updates via the EBU site and email.
