April President's Message
Fri 27 Apr. 2018
Dear Members, Well, this is my final President’s message and I can honestly say that I will be sorry to step down from the role. I have gained, grown and learnt so much during my year that I have become kind of attached to the ideology of it; maybe I have enjoyed the power! On a serious note, it is an honour to have been given the chance to take such on a prestigious position, and I hope that I have done it justice. I remember thinking at the beginning of the year, ‘Use this opportunity to make a difference’ - and I hope I have.

March President's Message
Fri 9 Mar. 2018
Dear Members… Time is such a strange thing - January this year seemed to last forever; but February has zipped by in a flash! For the last few days, the ‘Beast from the East’ has certainly caused a lot of disruption, and I hope you and your families have been coping without any major issues. I work from home, so for me it has just been a case of a few cancelled meetings (and a considerably bigger heating bill). Being effectively snowed in does mean, however, that I have managed to get a few things ticked off my ‘to do’ list, not least, composing this penultimate message to you. Yes - penultimate; I can’t quite believe I am nearly at the end of my presidential year, but it’s true. There are just two months left before I hand over to my very capable deputy, Richard Brame. Richard is a Senior Director at Willis Towers Watson - and if you are coming to our annual dinner, that will be your first chance to hear from him about his plans for the year ahead.

January President's Message
Fri 26 Jan. 2018
Dear Members… I don’t know about you but as 2018 kicked off, I nearly got beaten by the New Year blues. January swooped in, putting an end to the festivities, dousing out the lights and vacuuming up all the glitter, regimenting the calendar, taking away precious time with family and friends and replacing it with what then felt like mundane duties of just ‘keeping things going’. And then, as reality hit, I started worrying about all of the things I wanted to achieve during my presidential year, and whether I would be able to finalise the plans I’d started, and make sure they were successful. But luckily, that didn’t last long. Thanks to fantastic support and hard work from my fellow council members, it soon became clear that we are still very much on track, and I am extremely excited for the next few months and beyond. I picked myself up, shook myself off and made myself get on. I have loads to look forward to throughout the year and after all, the festive period – with all its blissful, exhilarating escapism - will happen all over again in about 48 weeks’ time!
