Newhaven Port’s team at Guildhall for British Ports Association AGM.

A team of representatives from Newhaven Port’s management team attended the British Ports Association (BPA) Annual General Meeting and Lunch, held at the prestigious Guildhall in the City of London on 28 April.

Representing Newhaven Port were Dave Collins-Williams (Port Manager), Kevin Holmes (Port Engineering Manager), Gary Milan (Safety, Health, Environment and Operations Manager), Mark Beaver (Finance Manager) and Conor Hudon (Deputy Harbour Master). The team took part in the AGM proceedings, including the appointment and voting of new officers, before joining industry colleagues in the historic main hall for the Chair’s address and annual lunch.

The event brought together leaders and representatives from ports and maritime organisations across the UK and internationally, providing an opportunity to discuss key challenges and opportunities facing the sector.

Gary Milan said:

“This was a great opportunity to meet colleagues from fellow ports and the maritime sector, both national and international, and to discuss issues such as decarbonisation, electrification of infrastructure, hybridisation of vessels and funding, to name but a few.”
