R.I.P. South Wales - 10 Years of Investigating the Unknown

On Saturday 12th October 2013 we officially celebrated our 10th Year of investigating the unknown. We had a meal and team get together that even had Cake!!

 

The team was formed 10 years ago to research and investigate the unknown ranging from Ghosts to UFO's to Cryptozoology. We originally started over with 3 team members who in College were investigating the reported activity in Burleigh Academy in Newport, Gwent.

 

Over the years we have adapted and changed outlooks and investigation techiques but never forgot the main purpose of the creation of the team which was to investigate and try and put a natural explaination to Unknown Phenomena.

 

We can not forget the teams and people that have helped shape and change the team to be the team that we are today. These people have either proposed new ways to investigate or helped with equipment ideas or even investigation location ideas. They have also been past team members who we have a had the chance to investigate with in the past but due to unforseen circumstances we have had to part ways.
