INDUSTRY UPDATE THE KBSA COLUMN
MyLife Strengthens GB Team with Two New National Sales Managers
BSA has used the occasion of its AGM 2026 to announce a restructure of its board. During the meeting, members voted on and approved the appointment of all the board roles. “The strength of any association comes from the people behind it and I’m proud of what we continue to achieve together,” commented Richard Hibbert, who will continue in his role as National Chair. “Over the last year, we’ve focused heavily on improving all areas of the KBSA and restructuring the board to ensure we are fit for the future. This restructure moves us towards a structure based on individual passion, expertise and experience. And I genuinely believe this is the strongest, most agile and forward-thinking board that the KBSA has ever had.”
