The 2024 AGM will be held on Saturday 11th May at Tennants, Leyburn, North Yorkshire at 2pm. It will be preceded with lunch provided by the Association at 1pm as usual, all welcome. There will also be the facility to join the AGM meeting on Zoom should members require and full details will be sent out once the nominations for Council have closed.
Are you interested in getting involved with the Association’s Council? The commitment is attending three Council meetings each year (all of which can be joined via Zoom although the Spring meeting is typically hybrid with some members meeting in person at Leyburn and some on zoom) and then involvement in working parties of interest as necessary.
There are two members of Council due to retire this year and are eligible to stand again – Mrs A Parsons & Mrs J Barker.
However, there are also several free seats and new members are always very welcome.
If you wish to stand or re-stand please submit a nomination form. Election is by postal ballot under conditions agreed by Council, which can be found on the nomination form enclosed. To be valid nominations must be received by the Secretary 42 days prior to the Annual General Meeting which is Saturday 30th March 2024 . Nominations should be accompanied by a candidate profile of not more than sixty words, including the experience they would bring to the role.
In the event of a ballot being required if nominations exceed places, profiles will be circulated to the membership for a full postal vote.
A form can be downloaded from the members section of the website
