Last year’s convention in April was very well attended and we thank everyone for coming to support us once again. We received excellent feedback from delegates at the time of the convention, by e-mail or letter after the event, and from questionnaires distributed at the time of the convention. A few suggestions were made which we have taken on board for the future. We were very pleased with the feedback and thank everyone for their comments.
