“I wish you a happy and healthy 2020” I said in the last Newsletter, never expecting that there would be a serious health threat to all of us, especially to older Members. Anyway, the committee has not heard of any Members being infected with Coronavirus, and as the national rate of infection is now diminishing we can hope that we will all be able to avoid what can be a very serious or fatal illness.
Government rules have prevented the holding of meetings and we don’t expect there will be any this year but the committee will keep an eye the situation and will let you know when firm plans have been made.
