“Any organisation’s effectiveness depends upon the involvement of its members. We all have a strong interest in our individual clubs, however, real strength is in being united under the Federation’s banner. This gives us a strong voice with government and its agencies. Your attendance at the AGM is central to this and is appreciated”. Garry Jackson (President, FoMC)
