Peter Kirby leaves role as RSGB General Manager

The RSGB has released a statement this week stating:-

Peter Kirby, RSGB General Manager, has left the Society’s employment after the discovery of financial irregularities on his part.

For the time being, RSGB Director Don Beattie, G3BJ, will act as General Manager.

At this difficult time for the Society can I ask that everyone supports Don in his role. He may be contacted at Don.Beattie@rsgb.org.uk or 01234 832 701/07802 922 219.

President

No more information has been given at the time of writing, however this is presumably the reason for the RSGB AGM being delayed until the 14th May.

More as we get it...
