## Whitwick & District u3a AGM 2023 ## **Report from the Chair** This will be my last report from the chair and despite a difficult start in the midst of the pandemic it is pleasing to report that our u3a is in a good ‘state of health’. Our membership is still strong, and our groups have continued to enjoy their activities throughout the past year. Thank you to all our Group Leaders who have kept things going during the past 3 years during which time many difficulties have been overcome. I attended the u3a trust meeting back in October 2022 and it would be fair to say that proposals put forward by the board regarding future fee increases fell at the first hurdle with over 20 amendments to the proposals put forward during a lengthy debate, none of which obtained the necessary majority, watch this space. Our own u3a held a ‘new members interest meeting’ back in June and the event was well supported, similar events are being planned. It was good to see our Group Leaders Lunch resume after a two-year absence. Some 39 attendees enjoyed the event which included discussions regarding several topics relevant to our u3a development, some of which have resulted in new ideas being implemented for the benefit of the members. We are always looking for those members who would like to join our committee and assist in the running of our u3a. It was pleasing to welcome new members during the past year. Finally, I must say a big thank you to all who have served and are still serving either on the Committee or in office over the past 3 years, it has been a pleasure to work alongside you. |**WAD Final Statement**|**of Accounts 2022-2023**|**of Accounts 2022-2023**|||| |---|---|---|---|---|---| |**Group CASH Accounts**|**B/fwd**|**Income**
