Dear BHT member,
Why are the sand banks rising in and around Bembridge Harbour? How far and how fast can we expect this to continue? If things carry on as they are, when will the central sand bank become a permanent Island? And most of all, is there anything we can do about it? The short answer to the last question is: “Yes – but only if you help us!” So please come and join us at Bembridge Sailing Club at 5.00 pm on Saturday 7th December. Before our AGM there will be a short presentation about siltation in Bembridge Harbour, based on the latest scientific data. Whether you are a member of BHT or not, please come along to find out what is happening and how you can help.
The formal business of AGM will follow at 5.30 pm, and the notice and agenda are attached . This part should not take too long, giving time for an open discussion afterwards. Please come and bring friends interested in the Harbour to help us shape a sustainable future.
The trustees will send a wider review of the year in the Harbour shortly .
