Celebration of our Presidents David Greene
Stephanie Boyce
C
ongratulations to David Greene on his term as President of The Law Society of England and Wales and to Stephanie Boyce on her inauguration as the new President. Westminster and Holborn Law Society is proud to have a close association with both these officers. David Greene has been an extremely long-standing member of our International Sub-Committee and speaker for our society
on all things Brexit. Stephanie was once our Honorary Secretary, in the years 2010 to 2012, so many of our members still know her well. Stephanie kindly gave the after-dinner speech at our annual dinner in March 2020, shortly before lockdown. That was the last time we were all able to meet in person at such a large event. We very much look forward to resuming events and meeting with our members in the near future and hope that both David and Stephanie will be able to join us. ■
