completely iiinded by the Heritage Lottery Fund through the "Awards for All Wales"
scheme, every copy sold yields a 100% profit for the Group. Other sales items also
funded by the same source are imder preparation. The launch of the book at our June
meeting was a particularly successfiil event attended by 40 members and guests including
Carey Chapman who gave a short talk on the life of Mrs Mildred Bruce, John Horn
(Sales Manager of East Lancashire Coachbuilders Ltd) who spoke briefly about East
Lanes and Ken Bowring a former Bruce Coach Works employee. Sales of the book, a
raffle, room fees and sale of photographs donated by Denis Chick boosted Group fimds
by over £270.
It is our intention that extra copies of this edition will be printed for sale at the Rally so
hopefully many of our readers will be non-members who we hope will eventually decide
to join us. Please feel fi-ee to come along to our next meeting at the Cardiff County Hall,
Atlantic Wharf, Cardiff at 7.30pm on Wednesday 17* July 2002. This meeting will
review the Rally and discuss the future of the Group and its vehicles. Following that, our
next meetings are on 21** August and 18* September. At the September meeting our
speaker will be David Smith, former General Manager of City of Cardiff Transport.
At the request of members, 1 append below a list of the current membership. It is
particularly pleasing to note that a number of former Cardiff Transport employees have >
joined us during the last few months and a warm welcome is extended to them and all
new members.
