The Master and Court were delighted to approve 30 applications for Guild membership and to welcome 19 new members at a Joining and Welcoming Ceremony at Leathersellers' Hall. As usual the Master invited the new members to take part in the Loving Cup Ceremony then welcomed them individually as he presented each with their warrants. Afterwards everyone enjoyed a glass of wine in the lovely reception room at the Hall. Many of the new members and their guests stayed on for the Master's Burns Supper - great fun!
