All agenda items for inclusion in Any Other Business mustbe received by me for inclusion on the formal agenda not later than 31st March 2017.

On the attached page you will find a list of the current directors of the Federation and their positions and a nomination form.

Please ensure that you contact the member you wish to nominate and check that they are willing to stand.

We would like to fill as many positions as possible, which helps ease the load on the directors and enables more efficient operation of the Federation.

We are keen to get involvement on the board from younger divers to bring some new ideas into our organisation and events. Most of the board have been heavily involved (if not always on the board) for over 20 years and have worked hard to put on the events that we do. For the GBDF to have a healthy future, we need new ideas and people to progress them.
Please put yourselves forward particularly for the Director Without Portfolio positions so you can help us continue the great work that the GBDF has done over the years.
If you wish to have an informal chat, please don't hesitate to contact either

Martin Smith ()Jim McNally () or

myself ()

Yours sincerely,

Lesley Grist

Administration Director
