Norrette Posted 18 April , 2016 Share Posted 18 April , 2016 Moggs: It seems that your ID is now your email account and your password is now your old ID. But the forum login itself is the same as before. Both: If that doesn't work then perhaps email the webmaster account (which is what I did) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moggs Posted 18 April , 2016 Share Posted 18 April , 2016 Thanks for the reply but I think I may have mislead you. I am not currently a member and I meant to say I could not access the site at all. I tried on numerous occasions and all that came up was this site address was wrong. I'll check again another time. Jonathan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bob lembke Posted 24 April , 2016 Share Posted 24 April , 2016 Aside from the apparent difficulties getting registered and logged on, is this forum worthwhile? Do they have a valuable publication? How can someone have been a member for over 15 years and have never been able to log on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Norrette Posted 24 April , 2016 Share Posted 24 April , 2016 It's one of those things. It's quiet because people can't log on. People don't persevere to log on because it's quiet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hedley Malloch Posted 25 April , 2016 Share Posted 25 April , 2016 Aside from the apparent difficulties getting registered and logged on, is this forum worthwhile? Do they have a valuable publication? How can someone have been a member for over 15 years and have never been able to log on? It has a magazine 'The Gallipolian'which comes out twice a year. This contains a mix of current news items and some good articles. As for how it is possible to be a member for 15+ years and never been able to log on - I simply don't know. I am sitting here looking at my notebook which has my GA passwords. None of them work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moriaty Posted 27 April , 2016 Share Posted 27 April , 2016 I have just logged on to the Gallipoli Association Forum, initially it wouldnt let me in as the "agree to the Forum rules" button was not checked. Having done this I got into the Forum. When I replied to a couple of topics I had to click on an emoticon before being able to reply.

Krithia Posted 14 May , 2016 Share Posted 14 May , 2016 The Gallipoli Association website has a logon that allows members to access 40+ years of its journal, 'The Gallipolian' which is published three times a year. The Forum is separate and is open to anyone to access (read only). To contribute you need to register, but you do not need to be a member. If anyone is having an access problem to either please email webmaster@gallipoli-association.org and it will be resolved quickly. The Association is manned by volunteers so sometimes there is a wait, but typically responses are dealt with quickly (within the week, if not the same day). If you have waited 15 years for a response I suggest you contact the Association again. regards, Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I posted three messages on the 22nd. of May but have had no replies as yet. Actually, from the information at the bottom of the opening page, there has only been one message posted since that date. I shall have to post my questions on this Forum. Thanks again for your help, aim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michaeldr Posted 11 February , 2020 Share Posted 11 February , 2020 The Gallipoli Association's forum may no longer be operative but, as our GWF Pal 'aim' has pointed out, the Gallipoli Association itself is still going; indeed, I would say is still going strong! I've been a member for over 25 years now and I do not recall a committee with such an active and energetic enthusiasm as those who are currently serving seem to have. Their dedication to the promotion of the educational aspect of the charity is really inspiring. Let me share with you are a few short excerpts from a letter written by a teacher giving feedback in July 2019, following a Gallipoli Association sponsored school trip to the peninsula as part of the association's education programme “…. In 25 years of teaching it was both the most enlightening and deeply joyful experience I have ever had, and this is in no small measure down to the precise, responsive, adaptable, humane and professional management of our group by Stephen and Rory.* The group consisted of fifteen Year 9 students from a very challenging school on the south coast in Gosport, an area of deep social deprivation and habitual low aspiration. Several of the students had not travelled out of the country before or indeed entered an airport or flown on a plane. We had service children and over half on Pupil Premium. The impact on the students - all of them - has been profound. ….. Thanks are deeply owed to Ian Binnie and the Gallipoli Association for their belief and trust that Brune Park School could deliver on such generous investment. …...... Ian was there for the long haul and was a great support in the months leading to the trip. He has a great way with the students, borne of his stature as an educator and school leader. .... The students were deeply respectful and empathetic in the cemeteries - several found their namesakes and this also had a profound effect on them. The compelling and moving accounts from the guides regarding how working class parents had no means to visit their sons’ graves sent some really big emotional waves through the kids. As we had some services children on the trip, there were tears and there were connections felt way beyond the geography and distance of time or place. Here was history in name, in age (the students were keenly aware of the proximity of their age group to some of the lads who fought) and history that hummed around them, keenly felt and living through the stories spun by the guides and in the dried earth, still graves, neat flowerbeds and spectacular views.….” * the association's historian and the Battle Honours Ltd tour guide The Gallipoli Association's education page can be found here - https://www.gallipoli-association.org/education/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
