The BLS held it's 2018 AGM in Carlisle, at the Tullie House museum. It was well attended and followed by some excellent talks.
At the meeting Allan Pentecost stood down as President at the end of his two year term, to be replaced by Paul Cannon. Becky Yahr became the new Vice President, and Eluned Smith took on the role of Secretary.
We were especially pleased to give the Ursula Duncan Award to our Treasurer, John Skinner (pictured here). Like any good Treasurer he works quietly in the background, keeping us all on track, so it was good to have the opportunity to show our appreciation for all his efforts.
