Brigade Secretary Stands down
Ashley Oldfield the recently elected Brigade Secretary has regrettfully had to stand down from the position for personal reasons. Ashley will still be involved at Brigade Committee level of the FBU but made the honest decision that at this present time, with his circumstances as they are at the minute he could not give the level of committment that is required at Brigade Official level. The Brigade Committee thanked Ashley for his time in office and we’re sure when the time is right he will be back.
As an interim measure until the election can be run Pete Smith was appointed by the Brigade Committee as Humberside’s ‘Acting’ Brigade Secretary.
