Barbara Harewood CTA
The East Midlands Branch of the Chartered Institute of Taxation is indebted to Barbara Harewood for her service as a committee member. She became Chairman of the Branch in 1997 after many years as a diligent and very efficient Secretary.

In 1994, the Branch held a Celebration Dinner in Nottingham to commemorate the Institute’s Grant of its Royal Charter. The keynote speaker was Sir Anthony Battishill, then Chairman of the Board of Inland Revenue. Barbara had met him at a cocktail party held after a Branches Forum earlier that year. She contacted his office and made all the arrangements.One consequence of Sir Anthony’s attendance was that our top table was filled with Section Heads from HMRC. Our dinner was heralded as a great success.

We were very sorry to learn of Barbara’s death last month and contacted members in the East Midlands with the sad news. We are pleased to include here this tribute from Past Chair Andrew Tiplady.
