THE BRITISH BEATLES FAN CLUB TEAM
Craig Smith - Magazine Publisher/Designer, Co-editor

Now relocated in the good old USofA, Craig is still active in the club. His writings grace the pages of our magazine, which he still designs. Recently made poorer by purchasing tickets for Macca's upcoming tour in the US. "It killed me paying those prices, but what can you do if you wanna see your hero in concert, eh? He won't be around forever".
Michele Copp - Co-editor, Membership Liaison, Communications (website/social media)

On July 4, 1990 she finally got a chance to see Paul (her favorite Beatle) when The Paul McCartney World Tour came to Washington DC. It was a night she will never forget. She is still hoping to meet Paul in person someday, but so far he has proved to be elusive. However, she did meet Leslie Cavendish one summer at The Beatles CafĂ© in London so she’s getting warmer! Many of Michele’s friends and family are not avid Beatles fans (GASP!) and so it was amazing to reconnect with an old friend in England in 2010 and get actively involved with the BBFC. She keeps our Facebook page, Twitter feed, and Yahoo group active and contributes articles to the magazine. She is willing to pitch in and help wherever help is needed.
