Chairman – Andrew Thompson

Andrew became Chairman in 2025 replacing Jon Coleman who has decided to go deep water sailing whilst he still can. Andrew runs our meetings and is the key decision maker in the lead up to the show.

The Chairman’s role…

The chairman leads our committee, not only at the meetings, but during our decision process, and with external bodies too.

It’s not quite like a corporate chief executive, as we take decisions as a committee, but the chairman leads from the front to make sure our show is as good as it can be.
