One of the most enjoyable AGMs in recent years was held in June at Spetchley Park.
Thanks to the generous hospitality of Mr and Mrs John Berkeley, the
visit began with a conducted tour of the gardens, followed by refreshments in
the dining room of the Court. With the largest ever attendance at an AGM,
exceeding 80 for the first time, the main proceedings had to be held in the
small church near the Court, which had been decorated with flowers by Lynn
Gorman.
 The highlights of the AGM, presided over as usual by Lord Sandys, were a
resounding speech by the retiring chairman, Tom McDonald, and the presentation
of the Sir John Willison Awards to David Hawkins and Vicky Dennis. John
Berkeley and Tim Davies gave illustrated talks on the history and management ofthe Estate.
