With this issue comes your Membership renewal form for 2017-2018 (still only £5) so, why not fill it in now, write a cheque and post it to Barry - before you forget!  You will also find the Annual General Meeting notice. We hope to see lots of Members there to welcome our new Chairman.

    We also launch an appeal for donations to support the continuing restoration of P.1127, XP984, at the Brooklands Museum. The Association’s gift of £500 has already helped this project but further funds are needed.

It is 100 years since the Richmond Road factory was opened and to mark the anniversary an exhibition is to be mounted at the Hawker centre in September. We hope that members will support this initiative, not only by visiting but also by volunteering to help.
