“This extends to the fantastic community work being carried out across the region and we understand our responsibility to our local communities as the county club who represents them.

“I’ve personally met with the victims to apologise on behalf of the membership and clarify the work carried out by the Board in producing the report. Following suggestions from the unbiased committee, the 12 Membership is now coping with the method regarding any people the place sanctions could also be imposed. The membership will deal with these promptly however with equity to the people concerned.”
