A fond farewell was said to Helen Leech at the January committee meeting. Helen was presented with a bouquet by Steve Holland, KILN Chair.
Helen has been an invaluable member of KILN for some years and has served both as a committee member and Chair. She will be greatly missed for her expertise; particularly regarding the website, for her enthusiasm, and .......for being Helen!
We wish Helen all the best in her new appointment as the Virtual Content Manager for Surrey Libraries.
