Some members from Barrow attended the AGM at Penrith on Friday 20th january. The first speaker was Mike Taylor, Chairman of the Cumbria Partnership foundation. I particularily enjoyed hearing from Dr Howarth about the community services in Cockermouth. It was a very good day and nice to see other members from around the county. We are very pleased in Furness that our local chairman David Ralph was made secretary of Cumbria Mental Health group and Peter Kirby was re elected as trustee for Furness.
