Colin Bland has a long and successful
history with the Worshipful Company of Water Conservators. He was first elected
as a Court Assistant in 1989, was elected as Walbrook Warden in April 1995 and was installed as Master
on 1st July 1998.
Following a very successful year as Master,
he continued to give his time unswervingly for the Company. He edited the
Company newsletter (The Conservator) for many many years and served as Chairman
of both the Past Master’s Committee and our charity, The Water Conservation
Trust, until his retirement in the autumn of 2016.
In recognition of this unique service, the
Court at its meeting in December 2016, unanimously agreed to Colin’s
appointment as an Honorary Liveryman of the Company.
It was with very great pleasure that I was
able to read this commendation at our Myddelton Lunch and to present Colin with
his framed certificate in the presence of the Lord Mayor and Colin’s wife, son
and daughter.
A very special occasion.
Photographs show Colin and his family and
the presentation of his certificate.
