I have suggested a new page for the website and I have already had a number of positive comments under the
'where are you now'
title. If you are interested, I will open the page and put my version in as soon as possible; let me have your's for what will be a welcome addition to the Medical Society website.

The first is of the tree which is now in the car park of Kidderminster hospital and the second is of the plaque attached to it. The tree was planted in 2007 on the site of the old Postgraduate Centre by Richard Horton, the president that year, and myself. As far as I remember, it was David Malcomson who suggested the commemoration of the Postgraduate Centre in this way, which had been built by the Medical Society.

The tree seems to be thriving. The Estates Department of the hospital was very helpful with the planting and installation of the plaque and has recently had the lower branches removed which has improved the look of tree and got them out of the way of cars.

I think it would be good if the photos of this commemoration of the Postgraduate Centre, a hugely significant part of the KMS, could appear on the website.
