ANECCC Update

From ANECCC:

Thank you to everyone who joined us at Prudhoe last Thursday for our association AGM. We were pleased to welcome John Ryan and Polly Dedman from Motorsport UK. We will circulate an overview of their presentation and question answers shortly.

I’ve attached an updated date list, the regulations for Durham’s autotest, the information for ‘One for Frank’ Illuminations Tour and the quiz invitation from Whickham and District Motor Club.

Stage Commander training dates, Event Safety Officer and Spectator Safety Officer training have been released. Clerks of the Course, Stage Commanders and Grade 3 marshals should have had this information already. If anyone is interested in attending the training they need to be recommended by a Clerk of the Course.

Any questions, any info, anything to be added to the website, please let me know.

Kind regards,

Lindsay Burnip
Vice-Chair

Please share with your club members.

If you have been trying to update your email preferences, but have found no way of carrying this out on their website page, the reason is that after MSUK had moved to another email provider, there has been so much trouble with them, they have gone back to the existing one over the last few weeks.

They also took the opportunity to update this page so it’s much more user friendly. It is now ready for use if you’d like to update your email preferences.
https://www.motorsportuk.org/contact-us/keep-in-touch/

I would suggest doing this as when I looked at what preferences I had set previously, some were missing despite contacting MSUK last month about this. I will be checking once a month until I am confident that these are not getting removed.

Kind Regards,
Roy Bell.

NHMC 2025 AGM – 19:30 on 29th April 2026

Please see notice of AGM for North Humberside Motor Club Ltd for the year 2025. You may think that it’s not long since we had an AGM, but that was for 2024. In recent years the AGM has been later and later in the year, but now Ian has managed to pull it back to an earlier date.
