INTRODUCING a junior section is one of the first aims of La Societe Guernesiaise’s new president.
Pat Costen also vowed to continue what she called the organisation’s tradition of fine leadership. ‘I want to introduce our future members to what it is we do and help them to appreciate their island,’ she said.
‘My plan is to suggest that each section take the youngsters for part of the year so they get introduced to aspects from archaeology to bird life to conservation and to our newest department, climate change,’ she said. La Societe is open to all ages and Mrs Costen hoped anyone with a query would feel confident in seeking advice.

It is encouraging to read that ‘Mrs Costen hoped anyone with a query would feel confident in seeking advice.’ It might interest her to know that I contacted the Societe seeking just such advice on a matter relating to Guernsey-French some two months ago, and, as yet, have recieved not a word in response.
