Pat Jordan, the first President of the Association (who addressed our annual delegate conference this year) has kindly forwarded a photograph of the first NEC to us with a short history of the foundation of the AGS along with a presentation he gave to a symposium at St Patricks College in Drumcondra in 1988 dissecting a murder investigation. Also included is a letter received from a convicted man seeking clarification that “he was only convicted of manslaughter” Interesting stuff and many thanks to Pat for taking the time to write to us

The second Wellness day for Superintendents arranged by the NEC with the great assistance of HR&PD and the Welfare service was held on Tuesday 15th November 2022 at the Glenroyal Hotel in Maynooth. A fantastic day was had by all and as can be seen from the photos and video, seriousness was left outside the door. The third day is ongoing as this post is being uploaded and a fouth one is to be arranged for early December. Any members who have not yet attended are missing out on a really great opportunity to join colleagues in a forum like we never have before and the NEC would encourage all remaining members to take advantage of this valuable experience.

Pictured are the members who attended the first Wellness Day for Superintendents held at The Heritage Hotel in Co Laois. This day is designed to provide an opportunity for each member of the Association to engage in an active positive programme which includes team building, contemplation and mindful activity away from our daily responsibilities. This programme was developed after consultation between the NEC, HR&PD and the Welfare service and by all accounts, it was a hugely enjoyable day and is seen as a first step in developing a meaningful focus on members wellbeing. Keep a look out for the invitation to the second of these events.
