Robert Milner is retiring as Chairman of the North Staffs
and District Chess Association due to health issues and will not seek
re-election in 2025. He will also relinquish his presidency of the Staffordshire
Chess Association.
Robert has
guided the Association for 49 years. He joined the committee of the Stoke League
in 1976 and supervised the formation of the NSDCA as we know it today. He has served as both Secretary and Chairman, and
it is hoped that he will still be able to offer the Association the benefits of
his experience in an advisory capacity.
