Dear Member,

Welcome to the last newsletter of 2025!

As the year comes to an end, I have taken some time to reflect on what we have achieved over the last 12 months, and this has helped to focus my mind on what we need to develop in 2026. Having served the BHS as both Honorary Secretary and Treasurer before joining the Presidential line, I am acutely aware of the administrative burden placed on Executive members. I am sure this is part of the reason that, despite the enjoyment of being part of the Executive, we often struggle to recruit to posts.
