The Funeral Suppliers’ Association elects a new National President.

The Funeral Suppliers’ Association has elected Anthony Hill, Managing Director of Somerset Willow England as their new National President. Anthony succeeds Philip Halliday who has completed a two year term.

On his installation Anthony said: ‘it gives me great pleasure to follow Phil into this role and I want to thank Phil for his tenure as FSA President. I can safely say on behalf of the membership your commitment, presence, and hard work have been undeniably reassuring for us all… throughout this time you have firmly cemented your position within the echelons of FSA history. Unfortunately, though all good things do come to an end.

As I step forward as incoming FSA President, I will have reduced the average age of the association’s presidency by a quarter of a century!!!! However, let that not deter your faith in my ability to be totally committed and professional in all my work for the Association. I will promise to channel my energy into representing the FSA to the highest standard and to the best of my ability over the next twelve months.’

The Funeral Suppliers’ Association is the only trade association solely for manufacturers, suppliers and service providers to the funeral sector.
