We held our spring seminar and annual general meeting on Friday 22nd March at the Holiday Inn in Taunton. We were delighted to see so many members at what proved to be a hugely enjoyable event.

We are pleased to announce that Bob Hawkins was elected Regional President, with Simon Perks taking on the role of Vice President in addition to his existing duties as Honorary Secretary. Henry Lovegrove joined the council as Honorary Treasurer. We are also delighted to welcome Graham Friday, Hywel Pullen and Danny Batten.
