| Sad news for the Association with the passing of one of our younger members, Mattie MacDonald. For those who do not know, Mattie had been suffering from and battling Crohn's Decease for a number of years now and sadly lost his battle with the disease. He was a fantastic bloke in all ways and I am sure those that knew him well would fully agree with that. We all admired his tenacity when he took over the Scottish and Northern Ireland Rep a few years ago but sadly had to resign due to the poor health of his newly born son, whom thankfully is doing well. His funeral will be on 1 May 2012. Please raise a glass to Matty and the rest of our band of brothers who have now crossed the bar! Also, please find the time to make a donation at www.crohns.org.uk Fair winds Mattie, your waters will always be safe. |
Another successful MWA reunion!

Project VernonProject Vernon is our chosen charity. The MWA remains actively involved and promotes the recognition of the Minewarfare community within the project. We ask that you promote this cause wherever you are, at work at home and to friends and relatives alike. If you are considering purchasing a present with a difference for someone think of looking at the gifts available on the Project Vernon Website. I would also ask that whenever possible please support the Project Vernon fundraising events. Each year the MWA has made a donation to Project Vernon and to date this contribution has amounted to over £550. However, this year instead of making a donation The MWA bought a Framed Limited Edition copy of the Vernon Creek Painting and will present this print to the Minewarfare Operational Training Centre in HMS COLLINGWOOD. This way the MWA still makes a contribution to PV but in return is able to make a contribution to the RN Minewarfare fraternity also. |
