Divisional Conclave
   
Saturday the 2nd September and the knights of the Red Cross Division of West Lancashire assembled at Wellington Park Leyland for their Annual Divisional Conclave.
 
Sadly, the Intendant General, R.Ill. Kt. Michael Robert Walker, could not preside, he was at home, recovering from minor surgery, earlier in the week.

The main business of the day was, as always, the appointment of the Divisional Team for the year 2017-2018. This could not be done without first paying a tribute to the outgoing Team which had been very ably led by the Divisional Eusebius Iain Brown. Ian had had a very busy year and had visited every Conclave in the Division, some of them more than once.

Another year gone, where does the time go. It won’t be long before we are back next year and the team will be back to see their successors appointed.
