Having served as a liveryman member of the Livery Committee since 2011, nominated by the Fellowship of Clerks, and for the last two years as its Deputy Chairman, Vicky Russell was elected as its Chairman. Vicky has been an active member of the Committee, chairing the Livery Companies Working Group, responsible for the Livery Liaison Scheme, since 2013 and the Communications Working Group since 2015; this latter group being responsible for the four annual City Briefings as well as the annual Wardens and Court Assistants course and the Clerks’ Briefing.

Vicky is a committee member of the Golden Jubilee Masters Association and the Lady Masters Association and an active member of the Magna Masters Association. In her election address, Vicky stated that, in her view, the Livery Committee is at a critical stage of its development, most particularly in light of the growing momentum of the Pan-Livery Initiative. She added that at this juncture there is the need for positive and strategic change in the work and focus of the Committee in order to ensure that it not only remains relevant but also becomes more significant. The Livery Committee elected Deputy Chairman, Philip Woodhouse. Philip is a Member of the Court of Common Council, Deputy for the Ward of Langbourn and a past Master of the Grocers’ Company.

  • June 2018 NEWS
    LIVERY June 2018 BRIEFING Message from the Chairman, Deputy Richard Regan OBE Dear Liverymen, I present the latest edition of the Livery Briefing newsletter, which I hope is both interesting and useful to all members of the Livery. The Livery Committee website also provides a huge source of information and I hope you will not hesitate to let either myself or the Deputy Chairman, Victoria Russell, know if there are any areas of interest that you feel are not covered either in the periodical newsletter or on this website. Should you wish to contact us or contribute to future editions of the Briefing, please contact the Clerk to the Livery Committee, Gregory Moore, who will pass on any correspondence. Common Hall has of course been a major event for all Liverymen this month, particularly since it was contested by four candidates. Your Livery Committee considered various ways in which to modify the usual show of hands and visual count to ensure clarity, transparency, accuracy, and equity. It was hoped that a result could be declared on the day and I would like to thank Liverymen assembled for their patience, the candidates for their co-operation and the many staff who attended all three Halls which enabled this to be the case. We will be looking at how we can further improve the future arrangements where there is a contested Election, in particular the Count where a show of hands is specified under the relevant governing legislation and I would also draw your attention to the arrangements for 2019 and the proposed double Aldermanic Election in 2020/21.

  • NEWSLETTER of the WORSHIPFUL COMPANY of TURNERS of LONDON June 2012
    THE TURNER NEWSLETTER OF THE WORSHIPFUL COMPANY OF TURNERS OF LONDON June 2012 I am delighted that it is my privilege to be Master of the Worshipful Company of Turners for the coming year. I am conscious of the responsibilities I carry, but I have the assistance of two outstanding Wardens to ensure that I don’t go too far wrong. However, it will be critical for me to have the support of the Court, Past Masters and the whole Livery as well, if I am to match the successes of my predecessors. I am incredibly fortunate to be Master in, possibly, one of the most interesting and exciting years of this century. The Company will share in the celebrations for Her Majesty’s Diamond Jubilee by assisting with the manufacture of some parts of the Royal Barge and by our inclusion in a lunch with The Queen and senior members of the Royal Family in Westminster Hall on 5th June. We will all be able to enjoy the Summer Olympics either by being there or through the media. As a Company we will hold the third Wizardry in Wood exhibition in October. To ensure the success of this event every Company member living within travelling distance of London should plan on being involved in one way or another. For my part, I will also be attending functions, within the City and beyond, the prime purpose of which is to promote the work of our Company through the Livery network. While the day-to-day business of running the Company is the responsibility of our Clerk, our committees undertake much vital work.

  • July 2017 BRIEFING
    LIVERY July 2017 BRIEFING Message from the Chairman, Deputy Richard Regan OBE Dear Liverymen, I have pleasure in sending you the latest edition of the bi-monthly Livery Briefing, which I hope you will find interesting and will be useful to all members of the Livery. One matter I would like to draw your attention to is the good practice that has been developed over the years regarding the timing of publishing or starting a campaign by a member of the Livery who may be thinking of offering themselves for election as Sheriff. Common Hall to elect the Sheriffs for the ensuing year is held on Midsummer’s Day and the new Sheriffs-Elect are admitted the day before Michaelmas (as you will see in the “News” section below). As a matter of good order and courtesy to the incumbent Sheriffs-Elect, potential candidates are asked not to start their campaign or indicate their intentions publicly until after the new Sheriffs have been admitted. In recent years this courtesy has lapsed occasionally and your assistance in maintaining this good practice would be greatly appreciated. The Livery Committee website (www.liverycompanies.info) also provides a huge source of information and I hope you will not hesitate to let either myself or the Deputy Chairman, Victoria Russell, know if there are any areas of interest that you feel are not covered either in the periodical newsletter or on this website. Should you wish to contact us or contribute to future editions of the Briefing, please contact the Clerk to the Livery Committee, Gregory Moore (Senior Committee and Member Services Officer, Town Clerk’s Department) atgregory.moore@ cityoflondon.gov.uk, who will pass on any correspondence.
