Chair’s letter

Chair of the Board, Colin Franklin, reflects on the last year, provides full details on the upcoming AGM, and how members can attend, vote, submit questions and highlights the financial success of the Society.

“Against the challenging economic environment and new regulations, I am pleased to report that your Society had a strong financial year. Profits increased and exceeded our original plans, so we were able to continue to strengthen our staff base and continue our investment in services for our members.”
