Open University Geological Society

Welcome to the OUGS
Wessex Branch Website


Geology and Earth Related Sciences for All


 
The Branch is lucky enough to have the World Heritage site of the Jurassic Coast on our doorstep. It is fantastic to see, and can show us so much about the history of the earth.

Wessex OUGS is one of many branches of the Open University Geological Society. The Wessex branch covers Hampshire, Dorset, Isle of Wight, Southern Wiltshire and the Channel Islands. Check out the OUGS Branches page for locations and web sites of the other branches.
The aims of the Wessex branch and the society is to organise a varied programme of field trips to venues both locally and throughout the UK, and to support the local and national membership in their study and enjoyment of Earth Sciences.

We endeavour to welcome new and prospective members to join us in our aim of 'learning by doing' in the field and to keep the branch membership informed of our activities and findings.
