This thesis has documented the history of the V.A.G.T.C. from its inception in June, 1978 until December, 1989.

As there is limited written material available, much of the information provided arises from interviews with six of the people who have held the position of President, other influential people nominated by the Association, Minutes of the Annual General Meetings and any correspondence, membership lists and other documentation the Association provided. Certain future directions and aspirations are recorded.
