Mark Adler has resigned from Clarity’s committee. He has been a strong figure-head in Clarity during the few years I have been on the committee, but I know he has had a strong impact on the work for several decades. This is what Peter Butt wrote when he took over the chair after Mark in 2001.

“Let me start by thanking my predecessor, Mark Adler, for all his work over the decade or so. If anyone deserves the title "Mr Clarity", it is Mark. Under his guidance, Clarity has grown from its British base into a genuinely world-wide organisation. It has members in every continent, and they work in an astonishingly wide variety of occupations. Mark will say that this success is due to the efforts of many people, working together and that is true. But those of you who know Mark and the work he has done for Clarity will know that his drive and commitment and his cheeky humour have enthused us all. So on your behalf, may I say a genuine "Thank you, Mark", for all you have done.”

We can only agree: Thank you, Mark!
