It is with great sadness that we bring news that Christine Earle FRPSL passed away on 28th January 2021, aged 73. Christine was well-known in the UK and internationally for her innovative approach to thematic exhibiting, and as a judge and contributor to organised philately in many ways. She was taken to hospital on 26th December and, while there, contracted the COVID-19 virus.
Christine will be missed deeply and we send our heartfelt condolences to her partner Pat Reid and to her family.
The Slovenian Philatelic Federation has announced that its 10th specialised One frame Exhibition, designated DesetoOkno Kranju 2021, will be held from 9th – 18th September 2021 in Kranj, Slovenia.
‘DesetoOkno’ means “Tenth Window”. The idea is that a Window is a story in one Frame. For the DesetoOkno exhibition all FEPA Members are invited to submit entries.

Invitations have gone out from the FEPA Vice President Giancarlo Morolli to the Member Federations to nominate candidates for the prestigious FEPA Medals and Certificates. The awards are made annually and this year they will give recognition to outstanding contributions to philately in 2020.
Three medals can be awarded. These are for:
Exceptional service to organised philately
Exceptional philatelic study and research (construed as a literary prize)
Exceptional support to philately
Up to five certificates of appreciation are awarded to Societies for outstanding activities for the promotion of philately.
The FEPA Awards are a great way to give recognition to exceptional achievements in European philately and we are sure there will be many deserving candidates this year, especially in the light of the difficulties everyone has experienced in 2020 with the consequent need for improvisation and innovation. If you know of a candidate who you think should be nominated, please contact your national Federation.
Nominations must reach Giancarlo Morolli by 30 April 2021.
Further information can be found in these documents.
