Trustees & plans to approve • Last year we reported 1 trustee would resign in next financial year – Avril stepped down in Sept 2013, Zeba April 2014. We also had a need for maternity cover (looking for co-opted members) and Bina, Talya & Anna responded. • Going forward we need to add to trustees and in particular: • Diane Treasurer handover Sept 2014 • EllyChair handover • Susannah, Mehtap & co-optedmembers Bina and Talya. • Who else?
Aims for 2014-15 • Committee needs new trustees – what interest is there? • Need Treasurer, Chair and Secretary • If no one comes forward? • Is it time to rethink aims – increase focus on community building, rather than fundraising? • Run a family social event
