Cypriot and Lebanese philatelists will meet in Nicosia in October

We received the following communication from the Board of the Cyprus Philatelic Society on their great initiative to invite Lebanese fellow philatelists to Nicosia, Cyprus.

On the 21st and 22nd of October 2023, a philatelic meeting will take place in Nicosia, between the Cyprus Philatelic Society and the Lebanese Philatelic Association, both members of FEPA. The meeting will consist of nine presentations, four from each Association and the ninth one will be given by the President of FEPA, Mr Bill Hedley.

The meeting was proposed by the Cyprus Philatelic Society to the Lebanese Association during the exhibition at Liberec 2022, when Lebanon joined the FEPA family. The Cyprus Philatelic Society felt that it was appropriate to host this event as a welcoming gesture towards our Lebanese friends as Cyprus and Lebanon lie in such proximity.

We are delighted that the President of FEPA will be present at the meeting, something that uplifts the status of the event.
