We celebrated our 50th Anniversary in style on 16th May. Thank you to everyone who helped to make the event so special. Congratulations to all those who received special awards for Long Service. It was amazing to meet so many ETN pioneers from the early days and wonderful that so many listeners could attend.

We celebrated our 50th Anniversary in style in May. At our AGM in June our long standing Chairman, Audrey Jenkins and our Vice Chairman, Alan Mooge ( pictured centre and right with Tony Vale of the Talking Newspaper Federation) both stepped down after many years of service. It is no surprise that ETN won ‘Enfield’s Finest’ award for best team-working charity under their stewardship. A new team of officers was elected at the committee meeting in August and we are pleased that Audrey has agreed to stay on the committee! New contact details are on the next page.
