The club’s AGM was held at 7.00pm on Wednesday 29th October over Zoom. A total of fifteen members attended the meeting (with three attending via proxy). Members approved the minutes from the AGM from 2024 and received the trustee’s annual report and the independently examined financial statements.
Members noted that John Conroy has stepped away from his role as a trustee and the club extended their thanks to John for how much he has done to improve the club over recent years. John will continue to support the club through his voluntary work as a coach. Members unanimously appointed Ian Warrington as a new trustee and re-appointed Roger Morley for a further four year term of office.
Jean Simpson MBE was unanimously voted in as the club’s honorary president for the next 12 months.
Trustees recommended an increase in membership fees for social members. It was noted that the fee for a competitive member to register with England Athletics will increase from £20 to £23 for 2026/7. It was proposed that the membership fee for under 12s for 2026/27 would be £25 and for social/second claim senior athletes it would be £40. This was unanimously supported by the members.
