Basel 2024

 One of the highlights of the Deacon's year is the annual festival in Switzerland of the Shoemakers Guild of Basel, Die Zunft zu Schuhmachern, our loyal and generous opposite-numbers in Switzerland. They come in considerable numbers every year to our dinner and entertain us lavishly at their own events. Deacon David McClements represented the Incorporation last weekend and was hugely appreciative of the warmth of his welcome.
