‘Seasonal Greetings’ to all of our Northumberland Federation Members! At this time of year your long-suffering, exhausted-but-very-content  Advisers are looking forward to the break over Christmas and New Year and we have only one Committee Meeting left until we reconvene in February. 

Our December Meeting will be a celebration of the past year, but will also be sad as Rosie Harden-Vane will be retiring from the role of Adviser. She has been a valued member of our little team for many years and we’ll miss her, but thankfully she will still be holding her three Treasurer Workshops each year, and staying on as an Independant Financial Examiner. Enjoy your retirement Rosie and massive ‘thank you’ from all of us.

On behalf of the whole Federation Membership I’d also like to add a very very big THANK YOU to the ‘fab four’ who have worked endlessly (and I’d say tirelessly too but that simply wouldn’t be realistic) to keep the office going.

I’m sure Marj will be saying much the same thing…but without them Northumberland Federation would have ground to a messy halt. The work ‘behind the scenes’ has been intense from manning the phone, to paperwork, day to day enquiries, producing the Newsletter….etc etc…the list is endless and exhausting. Well done Ladies!!

Finally, from the Membership Support Team I’d like to wish everyone a Peaceful and Happy Festive Season – however you choose to spend it – and send love to all. See you at the Cathedral if you’ll be there – or in 2025 if you won’t .
