6th Spetember 2023
On 6th September I chaired the Reginal Club Chairs meeting which was well attended and very constructive. My message to them was to confirm again the AGM and Awards date of the 8th October from 4-30 pm, that we needed a Chair and Secretary to step forward, and the Photo competition. The main issue and a joint message from all who attended in relation to the proposed increases and changes in Race Passes, concerns were raised around the research behind the proposals and the consultation process. There was a worry that the proposals would have a detrimental effect in many areas. The meeting was recorded and TE will be made aware of the powerful message from London Clubs. Minutes of the meeting will be compiled asap and will be circulated on the site. Big thankyou to all the Club representatives who attended and contributed.

19th June 2023
Having been at The Crystal Palace Triathlon on 14th May when the very experienced team once again delivered a quality event for the London League, I was helping at the London League Bridge Triathlon yesterday 18th June.
It was great to again see so many London members and clubs taking part in both.
Both events were extremely well received with a pool swim at one and a testing open water swim at the other with closed road cycles and traffic free runs on solid paths and pavements.
Congratulations to both for quality events fit for the London League.

Update on London Region activities
Our web site is currently being updated.
We are in great shape with the leagues etc.
We now also have contacts for Coaches on an active Whats App group.
Club Chairs have another Whats app and social media platform.
Both are working exceptionally well. If you wish to get involved, we would love to hear from you.
The Next Regional Club Chairs Meeting will take place next Tuesday, 6th June and is shaping up to be a lively and informative meeting.
We desperately need quality fresh blood for the Committee especially for the positions of Chair, Secretary and Vice Chair, all of whom will stand down in October.
Very tentatively the date for our AGM is 2nd October but yet to be confirmed.
The next London Regional Committee meeting is 20th June and if you have anything to contribute, please contact us.
