OSPA’s regional Social Events 2018

The Future

Overseas Service Pensioners’ Reunion Luncheon Group
Organiser - Corinne Alexander

You will be aware that the Overseas Service Pensioners’ Association will be closing in October this year.  There are a number of members who do not wish to end the luncheon gatherings and want to continue meeting.  I am happy to make the necessary arrangements for these but I do need your support.  Unfortunately we will no longer have the financial backing of OSPA which means that the way in which the luncheons are organised will have to change as there will be no money for large amounts of postage and deposits for rooms, etc, but there are ways round this.  I am happy to make contact through phone calls, text messages and emails, however if you would prefer to continue with the current letter arrangement I would appreciate a small donation to cover postage.  Some members have sent me books of postage stamps.  If you would like to continue meeting please let me know as soon as possible so I can draw up a list of contact details.

It may be that with the reduced numbers we might have to move venues but at the moment the current hotels we use are happy to accommodate us and work round our more informal arrangements.  I would welcome any suggestions that you may have to help us move forward so we can continue to enjoy our friendships.
