After the success of the 2010 AM in Preston we are delighted to announce that Finishing Touches UK have again been appointed to look after the Trefoil Executive Committee requirements for the Southend-on-Sea Annual meeting in June 2011.

Once again it was a real pleasure for myself and the team to work with and meet so many of you in Preston. The weekend had so many highlights – the wonderful Lancashire welcome and hospitality, the excellent venue for the AM Meeting, the Saturday evening organised by the North West Region and also our own evening on the Sunday when we enjoyed a splendid evening of music rounded off by campfire and singing. During the evening it also gave us great pleasure not only to once again be able to support the work of the Talking Trefoil team with a donation to assist their fund raising for the planned purchase of ‘boom boxes’ but to also raise, with the generous assistance of Trefoil members, £340 for Support Our Soldiers to provide small boxes of ‘home comforts’ for military service personnel serving overseas in operational theatres.

This year our pre AM tour gets you off to a great start with a London Theatre and Guiding Heritage Tour staying at one of London’s best 4* hotels whilst our post AM tour will let you extend your weekend with a tour to the beautiful island of Jersey, again enjoying 4* accommodation. Details of all these great tours are on this website. We will also have a pre ISGF Conference tour to the Italian Lakes in September 2011 - details coming shortly.

If you have any questions of would like any further information please do not hesitate to contact us – our office is manned through the week. Our telephones can frequently be busy and if that is the case when you call you will be diverted to our answer phone – just leave a message with you name and number and we will call you back as soon as possible – normally either the same or next day.

We look forward to welcoming you to next year’s AM weekend in Southend-on-Sea in Essex. Why not join your Executive Committee members for another quality AM package and also have the opportunity to experience the wonderful scenery of one of England’s perhaps lesser known areas on our day excursions on the Sunday of the AM weekend.
