It is with deep regret that the Society has learned of the death of Professor Sir Hugh Ford on the evening of Friday 28th May. The IMechE website contains an obituary for Sir Hugh. Registered members can log into the site for more details about Sir Hugh's lasting contribution to the awards scheme, the society and the details of his Presidential year in 1974.
The Summer Meeting was held on the 10th and 11th of July and was hosted by the President Steve Davison in West Cumbria. There was a interesting variety of visits to Corus, Wordsworth House, Jennings Brewery and M-Sport. An excellent dinner was taken in the Haunted Vault of the Rum Story at Whitehaven. Registered users can log in to read more details about this event. The summer meeting was very enjoyable and we are grateful to the outgoing President for organising an extremely successful few days.
