Report on the AGM and Social Evening on 15th April 2025

21 members and 4 non-members attended the AGM at Measham Leisure Centre. Chairman Peter Oakden outlined the current situation and gave a summary of the events that had taken place in the past year, assisted by the Honorary Life Member and former Treasurer, John Roddis, who was standing in the for absent Secretary.

The 30 minute AGM was followed by a return visit by Shirley Horton from The Magic Attic in Swadlincote. She gave a witty and informative presentation titled “Another One for the Road”. As the name suggests it was largely about local pubs and inns, the origins of their names and how they came to be located where they are.
