Welcome to the Gloucestershire Branch of the Magistrates' Association website. The site is designed to keep our members informed on changes in an ever changing magistracy. |
Welcome to our new President
Dame Janet Trotter DBE
Dame Janet was appointed Lord Lieutenant for Gloucestershire in October 2011
It is with much sadness that we have to report the recent death of retired JP, Jim Horne.
We celebrated this occasion with a Dinner at the
Thistle Hotel, Cheltenham in late September and past and present
Magistrates attended.
