Joycelyn Cull our Federation Chairman in her address detailed the move to Bell Park. Hilary Haworth followed on with the financial work involved in selling Stuart Lodge and renting new premises. I was left very grateful and appreciative of all the work and time expended by the Federation Board members over the past year. We should all remember that these people are volunteers and deserve our thanks for the day to day running of BFWI.
Emma Bradley spoke about the work of the teams behind 111 calls which was informative and a bit sad because of the mis-use of the service and sometimes the abuse to which the responders are subject.
The awards included a certificate for Winslow WI’s centenary which was a surprise as it had been given out at the last Annual meeting too! Perhaps we can put one copy in the scrapbook.
