Back in 1979…The UK chapter was set up by a small group of communicators, including Tony Buckley, Ian Hawkins, and Peter Jackson. This was the only chapter outside of North America for many years until…the EME region was set up about 1986 when Tony Buckley became the first regional director, followed by John Ford
The last ten years…• 2002 Neville Hobson, ABC• 2003 Neville Hobson, ABC• 2004 Barbara Gibson, ABC• 2005 Kristen Sukalac• 2006 Silvia Cambié • 2007 Velin Velkov• 2008 Rob Briggs• 2009 Gloria Walker, ABC• 2010 Marc Wright• 2011 Michael Ambjorn• 2012 Phil Weiss
