LEO Computers Society. http://www.leo-computers.org.uk/ The Society has a
membership of over 600 interested in the story of LEO. Chair of the Society is Peter
Byford. The Society publishes a regular Newsletter – editor Bernard Behr, Hilary
Caminer and Vince Bodsworth and from Spring 2019 called LEO Matters – describing aspects of the LEO story. One of its chief objectives is the preservation and publication of

objective. The Society and its members hold significant memorabilia in the form of :
