in 1972, the EFDSS ran folk music festivals including Sidmouth, in 1972 it had branches throughout the UK.
IN 2012 it no longer runs folk festivals and has no branches.
does anyone have details of the numbers of members in 2012, and the number of members in 1972.
The above is not a criticism but a statement of facts,I believe its current membership is less than 1972, if i am wrong please correct me, this might suggest that EFDDSS is in decline or it might suggest it has been in decline but is starting to regain membership.
I would be very interested to know the yearly membership since 1972 until 2012
