Firstly I would like to thank all those members who turned up for our AGM on the 17th of May. It was brilliant to see so many of you there; in fact you beat the record for attendance at an AGM by miles. 207+ of you came and that support meant so much.
Secondly, even better news is that we now have a Treasurer! Christine Dalziel has agreed to stand as our Treasurer and although we were too late to vote her in at the AGM we have accepted her onto the Committee using a casual vacancy clause. Chris will need to be voted in properly at our next AGM.
Chris has been a member of the u3a for a couple of years and has a good background in finance as she has been the Treasurer for Maghull WI for a few years. As you can imagine, once she said yes we made sure to hang on very tightly to her.
On behalf of myself, the Committee and all the members I would like to send our thanks to Chris and wish her all the best in the role.
