New Local Section Names & Regions

26 January 2024

Our Local Sections have had a makeover! We have widened the geographical reach of some to enable more of our members access to a Local Section, renamed others to reflect coverage of additional areas while some will stay the same in both name and region. 

See the table below for the changes and how they will affect your area:

Current Local Section	NEW Local Section	Additional Areas Covered
Central North-West	Central North-West	+ North Wales
Central Scotland	Central Scotland	No Change
East Midlands	Central England	+ West Midlands
Hertfordshire	Anglia	+ Norfolk + Suffolk
London	South-East	No Change (already includes Kent, Essex, Berks, Oxfordshire)
North-East	North-East	No Change
North Lincs	North-Central	+ South Yorkshire
North of Scotland	North of Scotland	No Change
Wessex	South-West	+ West Wales + Bristol
West Cumbria	Cumbria	No Change

You may find you are now covered by a Local Section, where you weren't previously, so please do check your profile and update if necessary.  

To do this, login to your membership account on the InstMC website here https://www.instmc.org/login. In the ‘Members Area’, click on ‘Manage my Profile’. Scroll down to ‘Local Sections’ and select the newly named Local Section you wish to join. If your Local Section hasn’t changed its name, you don’t need to do anything.
