Fellows of the Society
Fellowship of the Society is awarded for outstanding services to the Society usually at
National level.
Fellows face a fairly rigorous process before being accepted as a member of this illustrious group.
- Nominations are sent to the Society Secretary with a detailed CV of the services rendered to the society and the hobby.
- The secretary presents the nominations to the Board of Trustees, who validate the CV and decide whether the nominee's contribution is outstanding enough to pass to the next stage.
- A panel of 10 current Fellows then further assesses the nomination, who will decide whether the nomination should go forward to a General Meeting.
- At the General Meeting, members then complete the process by voting on whether to accept the nomination or not.
The award consists of a certificate and gold badge engraved on the reverse with the recipient's name. The number of Fellows of the Society is deliberately kept small usually between twenty and thirty.
