Stalwart service from IWMA board members
Two members of the International Wire and Machinery Association retired from the executive board at the annual general meeting in February.
Terry Robinson, of XL Technologies UK Ltd, served as a board member, chairman, treasurer and a member of various sub-committees. Colin Dawson, of Whitelegg Machines Ltd, was a former chairman and elected president in 2012.
Mr Robinson’s decision to retire from the board was strongly influenced by family duties. “I have enjoyed serving the association over the years and will, without doubt, miss the many friends I have made during my time at the IWMA,” he said.
Mr Dawson’s place on the board has been taken by his son, Glyn, who will continue the tradition of Whitelegg Machines being a long-standing supporter of the IWMA. The company was one of the original founding members in 1970.
