13th Annual General Meeting for 2003
The AGM was held on the 22nd
November during the IFMH Study Day and we are grateful for members
sacrificing some of their lunch hour to attend. The AGM approved the
Minutes of the 11th
and 12th AGMs,
and accepted the Committee’s report and the Financial Report for 2003.
The 2004 AGM will be held during 2005 and the date will be announced
in due course.
"Quality research-based information and the
new public health agenda" Study Day, 22nd
November 2004
With IFMH’s usual impeccable timing our Autumn Study
Day was held the week following the release of the public health white
paper, Choosing health:
making healthier choices easier. 49
participants attended and we received many favourable comments on the
content and the opportunity for a timely overview of the public health
agenda. The Committee is very grateful for the unstinting efforts of
Joint Study Day Coordinators, Susan Mottram and Heather Williamson,
in organising the day, and for Jackie Bentinck’s input for local
organisation. The Committee is very pleased to receive comments such
as: "IFMH always put on an informative study day". We hope to
maintain these expectations and standards during 2005.
The Study Day programme and PowerPoint presentations
for the day can be viewed on the IFMH website at
