Shackleton Association 2026 Onwards

At the 2025 AGM held on 15 October 2025 the proposal to wind up the Shackleton Association at the end of 2025 was accepted and unanimously agreed.

Our last newsletter 'The Growler' will be issue number 150 due to be published in the last quarter of 2025 and there will be no further collections of membership subscriptions.

• All existing members who pay their subscriptions by standing order should cancel their standing orders now.
