THE federation’s biggest ever physical move took place during centenary year into a new £400,000 head office.
Again named Hampton House, and built on the existing site, the new building offers 50 per cent more accommodation than the old building, which has now been demolished.
The old premises were in great need of extensive renovation and, had the head office staff remained there, an extension would have been necessary.
Building new premises was seen as an investment for the future. It was officially opened on November 1st of centenary year by National President Russell Crawford.
Combined with the latest computer technology fully geared to the requirements of the next millennium, the new head office gives the federation the confidence to meet the challenges of the future.
