Appreciation of Roger King’s service on the BCRC Executive Committee
BCRC Chairman, Peter Dennis, presented Roger King with a Certificate of Appreciation during the BCRC Annual General Meeting in Buxton on Sunday 6 April. This was in recognition of Roger’s voluntary service to BCRC as Information Officer, 2017-2025 and also as Treasurer, 2022 and 2023, stepping forward as he did, to manage the charity’s finances whilst the Council sought a replacement Treasurer. BCRC officers are generally drawn from operational cave rescue teams and Roger actively serves in Devon Cave Rescue Organisation as Chair, and also has a Trustee role in the Peninsula Mountain and Cave Rescue Association.Roger stepped down from the BCRC Executive at the AGM but will continue to assist the Council by managing registration and organisation of the BCRC display stand at the Emergency Services Show, hosted at the National Exhibition Centre, Birmingham in September.
Peter commented on how much he had appreciated Roger’s kindness and helpfulness in the conduct of Council business, both with him and BCRC colleagues.
