93. Masters Committee, 8 March 2019


Having recovered from the exertions of the Pancake Race earlier in the week (see Blog No 90) it was time to get back to some hard work in the form of the Masters Committee. As previously mentioned, this Committee is an essential part of the machinery that runs the Worshipful Company of Water Conservators and does much to aid its effective operation. Meeting as we do in the Guildhall allows a very close liaison with the Corporation to ensure we remain fully engaged with one of our key stakeholders.

There is much to discuss and apart from the usual matters such as membership (showing some very positive increases) and finance (a constant juggling act), the forthcoming week of events to celebrate World Water Day took up a lot of time. I am indebted to the Fleet Warden and the PR Manager in particular for all their work in bring these events together. Full details of the week can be found on the Companys website; it will be an exciting few days.

We also spent time planning the Election Court Lunch on 11 April and I was delighted to note that we have in excess of 110 guests attending. In fact, due to the clamour for tickets we have had to change to a larger venue and so we will now be aboard HQS Wellington (not Wax Chandlers’) to accommodate us all. A nice problem to have.

There were plenty of other issues to discuss and I was once again very impressed by the levels of team work and enthusiasm displayed. Thank you all for your support of the Company and I look forward to its continued success.
