IDE members have noticed that, following the resignation of Valerie Stroud in February of this year, new President Steve Jack has had a few issues to deal with and, with the help of Vice President Duncan Rudall, Stuart Accleton and the rest of the Management Council those issues have now been resolved.
Comments have been made that the IDE was losing the momentum built up over the last 5 years and the lack of a media presence, with no website and twitter feed, was not helping to recruit new members and keep existing members informed. I can assure you that those comments have been addressed.
First job was to recruit a new National Secretary to replace Valerie and we now have Maureen Tong-Ralphs in post and working well. Maureen has recruited a new assistant so that administration in the office can now be back to normal.
The IDE website is now up and running with news feeds but it is having a full revamp and re-launch in the next few weeks so keep visiting the site and wait for the re-launch.
The @IDEPresident Twitter feed is now working again and Maureen will tweet news for the IDE office on a daily basis.
It has been a difficult few months but the IDE is Back!
