BRS have an excellent members’ Facebook page which gives information and allows members to ask questions however Facebook is excellent 
for sharing of information but it is no more than a stream of information and BRS found many questions were being asked time and time again so the BRS team developed BRITBOT on their website where members could retrieve information published on many past subjects.
