The President and the LRLCGA Executive Team would like congratulate Moira Page on her appointment to the England Golf Board at the national governing body’s first-ever online AGM held last week.

Moira is a qualified chartered management accountant with a specialist knowledge of financial management and expertise in corporate governance and strategies.

Moira is a scratch golfer, a member at Glen Gorse and as well as representing her county as a player she has also served two terms as ladies’ County Captain and one spell as County President.

Chief executive Jeremy Tomlinson commented: “On behalf of England Golf I have great pleasure in welcoming Moira and Sue Milner to the board.

“They were both excellent candidates and bring with them different attributes from their respective careers and experiences in golf which I know will be invaluable as we move forward as a governing body.

“It was entirely fitting that an historic online AGM resulted in a vote which elevated Moira and Sue to the board and ensured for the first time that there is now equal representation of male and female directors.

“This year has witnessed challenges the likes of which we have never seen before in the modern era, but the spirit in the sport has never been stronger.

Moira brings a wealth of top-level career experience to her new role as well as a deep understanding and passion for the game of golf and we wish her all the best.
