BDA Committees & Secretariat

The BDA has always benefited by having individuals willing to serve on its committees. Why they choose to give their time freely and subject themselves to, almost invariably, laborious work is one of the mysteries of life. However recent research has produced some clues. Apparently these people feel they have a duty to give other people the benefit of their experiences in the pursuit of progress. Duty and service were thought to have died out in the late 1960s so to be in the 21st century with them is a considerable discovery and achievement.

The BDA Management Committee meets quarterly but it is the Management Sub-Committees who are tasked with getting on with the ongoing projects and bringing them to fruition. On a daily basis the full time BDA Secretariat, provided by Davaly Limited comprising Brian and Clare Stringer, is charged with carrying out all necessary administration; ensure that budgets are met; arrange meetings and keep the whole operation on the road.

The whole team is not complete without the many members who contribute or are available for consultation.
