Our AGM on 11 June saw members present say farewell to Gillis Burgess, who retired from the Board of Trustees after 41 years service. Gillis cut a cake before sharing a cup of tea with friends. We were also pleased to welcome three interesting speakers – Victoria Lenzoi Lee, Dr Pam Hirsch and Sarah Rhodes – who spared the time to tell us about working with the Design Council, the recent BBC programme “Shopgirls – the true story of life behind the counter” and collaborating with communities in Africa to design jewellery.
