Days re-started
in September, 2021, and while numbers
have||| |||not quite reached pre-pandemic
levels, a loyal group ofapproximately||8-| |||16volunteers,
led by the trustees,

on a fortnightly||| |||basis, helping to clear pathways,
clear the sluice, install tern rafts, clear||| |||stonework,
clear scrub, prune trees and bushes, erect birdboxes,
plant||| |||apple trees etc||| |||Due to concerns about social distancing,
the trustees took the decision||to| |||postpone the AGM in 2021.The Secretary, contacted a representative||of| |||The Charities Commission
who advised
her that the AGM could be||| |||postponed
if itwas in ihe "interests ofthe trust". In April 2021, a||| |||representative
from the Charities Commission
said, "It is essential that||| |||members
can see and hear the trustees at the AGM and ifthese||| |||conditions
cannot be met safely, then the meeting can be postponed.|If|| |||this isthe case, all trustees
and officers can remain
in post until the next
AGM. "As several ofour members
do not have the technology
to access||| |||Zoom, the decision was made to postpone ihe AGM in the interests of||| |||public safety and members
were notified ofthe postponement.
In||| |||addition, the trustees also took the decision to postpone
membership||| |||fees until the next AGM. The trustees are delighted
to be able to hold a||| |||face-to-face AGM on Wednesday
20th July, 2022 and we look forward||to| |||welcoming
our members
and updating
them on the progress that has||| |||been made during 2021-2022.||| |||Despite the challenges
we have faced, 7 individuals
have become new||| |||members
between 2021 and 2022. Current membership
stands at 54.||| |||Trustees voted to keep membership
fees at the same level as the||| |||previous
year, 2021-2022. The following are the subscriptions:
Individual,
f20.00;Volunteer/Student,
f10.00; Life, f250.00;Corporate Sponsor.||| |||f100.00.As the Corporate "Members" do not have voting rights at the||| |||AGM, itwas agreed thai they would be redesignated,
"Sponsors" rather||| |||than "Members". Membership
fees were agreed by trustees at a meeting||| |||on the 16th December, 2020. Currently,
new members
receive: a||| |||membership
card; a Grimsargh
Wetlands
Trust sticker; an exclusive||| |||guided walk; an invitation
to the AGM with voting rights; a quarterly||| |||newsletter
and new members
receive a calendar.||| |||Achievements
