In our last Keeping in Touch newsletter of 2021 read on to find out about.....
...tomorrow's member meeting, including a potential appearance by Santa, upcoming membership renewals, reviewing your newsletter choices, member news from McMenon and member focus on LLWR.
Following the change in government guidance our member meeting is now virtual but with our patron Marcia in the chair we'll still be having some great discussions about whether Net Zero is possible, the importance of inclusion and diversity and the economic outlook for Cumbria as we approach 2022. We'll also find out who the winners of the BECBC Shadow Board Awards 2021 are and launch the BECBC Awards 2022!
To ensure the charity doesn't miss out Dianne has offered to attend the full meeting in a Santa Suit if we can raise that amount. Dianne says "For some people Christmas will unfortunately bring one of the hardest times of their lives as they face losing someone. The work that Hospice at Home do to support the individuals and their families makes a real difference so please help us support them through this fundraising."

Member Focus: Low Level Waste Repository (LLWR)
We are responsible for managing the national Low Level Waste Repository in West Cumbria on behalf of the Nuclear Decommissioning Authority (NDA) and overseeing a National Low Level Waste Programme to ensure that lower activity waste is managed effectively across the UK.
The LLW Repository site has operated safely since 1959. Its role is to ensure that Low level Waste generated in the UK is disposed of in a way that protects people and the environment.
Membership Renewals-action needed by account owners.
Membership renewals will fall due in late January or February for many of our members. As the system has changed with the new website the account owners will get an email in January confirming the process for your company.
In advance of the renewals could all account owners please check that the membership tier registered for last year is still correct for your company. You can do this via the "Amend Subscription" button on your dashboard where you can also check all the card details are still valid if you paid by card. This will help the renewal of your membership run smoothly and ensure you don't lose the membership benefits.
Last but not least...
we'd like to wish you all a very Merry Christmas and we look forward to seeing you in 2022!
