It's been called Friends' Newsletter since April 2014 when it started going to company members, those who signed up independently (either through an online form or on one of WMUK flyers), and some who said yes during a post WLM survey. It replaced the previous Members' Newsletter which only went out to company members.

Hi Gordo (and all)
I'm not sure exactly when the name changed (certainly before Autumn 2015) but we only produce one newsletter, which is currently called the Friends' Newsletter. It's meant to indicated 'friends' in the broadest sense, meaning allies, rather than the traditional voluntary sector use of 'Friends' which would tend to mean donors. The newsletter goes to paying members but also a much wider group of subscribers.

Is the "Friends Newsletter" what was formerly the "Members Newsletter"?
