Chairwoman’s Report to AGM 2023

This has been a brilliant year for Teesdale u3a. Our membership has topped 400 which was a shared ambition of our very hardworking committee. Particular thanks go to our membership secretary Tim Meacham who has been relentless in keeping existing members on board and recruiting new members.

I would like to highlight some areas of activity.

We currently have 34 active groups. Many thanks to all the hard work that the convenors put into their productive, popular and enjoyable meetings.
The weekend workshop programme has been very successful. Thank you to my colleagues, Sue Overton and Hazel Yeadon for enabling and developing this new addition to our programme.
Thank you to the Speaker-Finder team for their commitment to providing a quality of presentation that has stimulated wide interest and the return of numbers to our monthly meetings after the ravages of Covid.
The Forum newsletter continues to be a valuable and engaging source of information both in hard copy and online. We have published 11 editions this year and I extend my gratitude to all those who contribute and my fellow co-editors, Celia, and Ian, for making this work.
We function much better for the e-communication enabled by our Webmaster, Mike Sweeting. He has been a great support to me personally when my flimsy understanding of all things computerish has given me (and him) pain.
The committee’s understanding of our finances has been enormously enhanced by the accessible way our Treasurer, Hazel McCallum, has presented information. Thanks also go to our financial examiner, Peter Colley, for his work and advice.
Our outgoing Secretary, Jane Mathieson, has shown a tireless commitment to keeping the Committee informed about national u3a developments as well as doing the hard slog of managing our records and maintaining our licenses and insurances that enable us to function safely.

I am standing down as Chairwoman after two years in the role that have been a great pleasure to me. I have particularly treasured the companionship, teamwork, and sheer trustworthiness of my colleagues on the Committee and I am full of admiration for the ingenuity and hard work of everyone who contributes to the success of our organisation. It is a very noble quest, lifelong learning, and may our pumps continue to be primed, in the knowledge that this makes a huge contribution to our quality of life and well-being.
