Committee Elections 

In accordance with our constitution, only the Office of Hon Vice Chair will become vacant this year, as Jacky Easton, Patrick Doyle and Patricia Lock are all willing to stand again in Honorary Officer capacities for a further year.

Peter Newland has indicated his intention to step down from the Committee at the AGM. The other co-opted members,  Christian Gaze and Linda Llewellyn are willing to stand for election, and Alisatair Bennett, Barry Easton, Isobel Glover, Linda Nevill and Peter Robinson for re-election.  This means that there is a vacancy on the Committee.

 Any member can, of course, compete for the Honorary posts, or stand for a place on the committee, and are warmly invited to do so using the nomination form which is available on the website under ‘2026 AGM’ together with the Minutes of the 2025 AGM.
