| Result of AGM vote |
At the AGM yesterday a presentation was made by our Treasurer, Malcolm on the pros and cons of the club becoming a Charity. At the end of the presentation members were asked to vote on whether or not they were happy for the club to start work on establishing the club as a Charity. There were 6 Proxy votes who all voted yes. In the room all the members except for one also voted yes. One member chose not to vote. Based on this strong level of support, the club will now assemble a team to begin the necessary preparatory work. Periodic updates on progress will be provided, and a final vote will be held at an EGM to decide whether the club should formally become a Charity.
