As you are aware, there is no charge to be part of this community - all we ask is that you contribute positively to all things ALPINA.

As you are also aware, running this site is not free as there are hosting and domain costs that Neil covers himself.

The recent update of the site (and the issues that we experienced) has brought an increase to these costs as we are now part of a managed service.

Don't worry - we're not going anywhere. It's just Neil has invested heavily for our benefit and I feel it would be a positive gesture to contribute something towards keeping this site up and running.

To that end, if you are able to donate a fiver or even a tenner towards these costs then that would be appreciated.

Thank you and please donate here
