       We owe a huge debt of gratitude to our late Chairman, Neville Sibery, who sadly died in March 2018. Neville's expertise  enabled us to set up our Group correctly with proper procedures in place and his knowledge of meeting practice helped us to ensure our monthly meetings ran smoothly. He is greatly missed.
