Rather than a gentle ramping down as my term as President comes to its conclusion life is as busy as ever due, in no small part, to the very exciting school contacts with Tim Peake aboard the ISS, the related Buildathon activities and YOTA month becoming a fixture in our annual calendar.
These provide a focus on the next generation of amateurs as well as opportunities for media coverage and we hope some spin-off leading to careers in our science, technology and engineering base, all made possible by RSGB volunteers working closely with our affiliated clubs.
