REFLECTIONS FROM OUR EDITOR

ello everyone,
I hope that the wide demographics of our members and readers has ensured we have all now been vaccinated, and we are looking forward to a safer and happier year ahead.
I’m sure we have all had our challenges this last year or so, and my thoughts are with you all, and your families and colleagues.
It has been a challenging year for the Society and we have all missed a lot of contact with each other, and the wider sense of camaraderie that the Society gives us. Courses and seminars have continued very valiantly, and I know the renewed, though familiar, Office Holders are planning for our release for later in the year, and certainly your Committee has been encouraging them in their plans for our usual conference and of course our much-loved Annual Dinner.
We have been experimenting with a different online format and platform for CharteredONE, which will offer a more interactive content experience, we will unveil this for the next issue. I’d really welcome your feedback then on what format you prefer.
A great summer of sport is about to unfold upon us. After months of working from home, is it now time for football to come home.
In terms of my normal review of sporting excellence that is heading our way – well, we do appear to have the Euro 2020’s – which I believe is still called that in some areas, as it’s such a shame to waste a good reprint. Will England give us some cheer, both in the football, and the cricket, and of course what joy might there be in a glorious Lions tour?
As a Society and Committee there is a growing support for the many areas of equality and diversity that are so vital within our Society, and Barb Boyle is really championing this very vital subject, and she (and I) would really welcome your thoughts here.
So, as Spring warms up, and wherever we may holiday, let’s hope for some sunshine, may I wish you well until issue 30.
With very kind regards,
MARTYN BEST
Editor & Past President
