Life Members

Life membership badges were struck in 1953 in recognition of members who had given exceptional service to the Club. 
In that year the first recipients were foundation members Albert Chambers and Bob Jessop.
In 1958 the honour was conferred on A (Burt) J Anderson, George Burns and David Brooks.
This honour was given to Ken Kimmins in 1972 and in 1984 awarded to Brian Harvey.
Since that time several other members have received Life Membership:
