It may be worth keeping an eye open for Wales group training events as they often open these up to other areas if they're not full.
Then you can steal the information and ship it back over the border to the West Midlands! Just call it networking!
(They do have some very good training venues in Wales - Radnor Forest, Clocaenog Forest, Llanerchinnda Farm, etc and some VERY good lanes!
I know Wales have members in Baschurch and Bettisfield which aren't all that far from you. But the two groups overlap so you could go for either depending on which meetings are most convenient.
