Annual Malta Reunion 17th to 25th April 2026
The Members and guest only Annual reunion in Malta will be for one week to commence on 17th April with the Welcome meeting in the late afternoon. There is also the possibility that Her Excellency the British High Commissioner in Malta will invite us to the residence for a reception.
Below is the list of events and ceremonies that will take place during our one week reunion- all timings are provisional and will be confirmed nearer the time. Members may wish to extend their week so that they may attend the Anzac day service on the 25th. All events take place in the morning, apart from the BRA St George’s Day dinner, leaving the afternoons free. Costing will be available when attendance numbers are confirmed. All pickups will be from the Preluna hotel. Please contact me on pat.scott@georgecrossisland.org.uk to book on any of the events.
We also plan to hold a dinner for all members during the week. Please do let me know if you need any help booking or need more specific information.
The National Memorial Arboretum working party – June 2026
At the 2025 AGM, it was suggested that we might put together a working party to tidy up our Memorial at the National Memorial Arboretum.
This will save Association funds as the cost of cleaning the memorial, sprucing up the benches etc., is close to £2,000. If we can gather a group of us, we can do much of the work, to save funds.The majority of the Committee will sign up and hopefully a few more lovely members will also do so. Heavy and hard work is not expected to be involved.
June is often a good month with regards to the weather and also the schools are not on holiday. I can get a date once the NMA publishes their 2026 events guide, as we will need to avoid any big events of course.
If you could let me know if you are interested in this – purely provisionally and no commitment at this stage.
