Minutes of the Norfolk Zi er Club AGM held at Porin Communi Centre on Wednesda 24th June 2026 land Apologies". Stephen Bridge, John Fiddy, Robin & Wendy Cushing The minutes of the previous meeting were read, approved, and signed by the Chair. It was noted that the final figure for the legacy from Avril Ruck was £202K. Also, that the Banking Hub in Wymondham is now open and can be accessed any day. Although a further bank in Norwich has since closed which leaves the main one in Norwich City Centre. Treasurer's Report Doug said the last financial year had been a rollercoaster of a year! A low was the storm at Costessey Fete which left the gazebo damaged, the Lloyds bank at Wymondham closed and Lloyds closed our Flexi account after 44 years in operation. On the plus side our relationship with Royal Papworth Hospital has greatly improved and some Committee Members attended a presentation of a cheque for the purchase of the TOE machines. There was also a trip to the Royal Papworth Hospital Carol Service in Ely Cathedral. Doug said we finally got there in the end and have a new Club Account with CAF Bank. There are two sets of cheque books and paying in books. Val and Doug each have one to use for Club expenses and HSBC banks can be used. In the Financial report, which everyone present had access to a copy, the amount spent on equipment for RPH was £270,058.78 which was the highest ever paid out in a single purchase. Postage had increased so some advance purchases had been made. Hire of hall remains constant. Newsletters pricing is holding up. Letterheads are now out of date, and we may be able to devise one of our own as these are not often used. Email correspondence is often adequate. Club Lunches always pay for themselves other than invited Club guests. The Club's insurance is surprisingly constant. The Xmas Draw lottery licence has remained the same for many years. Bank charges were £70.19. Moving on to Income Doug specially mentioned Jordan Cooper's Christmas lights display, also Len & Gwynn's Garden Party. The coffee morning of Robin & Wendy and Rosie were also mentioned. Supermarkets and garden centre collections have held up, so well done to Val, John, and their volunteers. Donations were slightly down and Gift Aid was about the same. Doug mentioned that regarding the £1,797.62 in the Club account subscriptions are on a general decline. Thanks to David Cole for doing the Club raffles. Doug advised that there is little regalia at the moment although the Club hopes to have some cotton bags to sell along with some hats. A special mention went to the Sponsorship at the Xmas Draw which was great. The total amount in the Club and Charity accounts totalled £9,000.95 and a balance was achieved promptly. Doug thanked Paul Taylor our Club Accountant for the Financial Report and said he found no problem.
Chairman's Report Bob handed over to John Fitchew, as Co-chairman, for this. John mentioned that we have two Royal Papworth Hospital Champions, Lisa Smith, and Clare Johnson. As they encounter patients from our area at the hospital they will have some of our new cotton bags along with a newsletter, application form, and a little bit about the Club to give to anyone who may be interested in the Norfolk Zipper Club. Regarding outside functions John advised that at the Costessey Fete two full days attendance raised £168 profit and another at Peter Beales Roses, again 2 days, £268. In addition to a shortage of volunteers Peter has to use the day before and day after putting the stuff away. 13 years ago, these events made lots of money for the Club for the effort put in. It had therefore been decided that Sprowston Fete on 11th July will probably be the last event the Club attends, other than supermarket and Garden Collections. John mentioned the upcoming lunch on September 16th at Bawburgh Golf Club and a supermarket collection at Tesco, Diss on 25th July 2026. John advised the sad loss of three members, Alan Moore and George Blake, also Colin Hill, who had been on our committee. They had fully supported the Club and will be sadly missed as will all members who have been lost this year. Election of Officers Members due to retire this year are Val Cole and Peter Munday with a further vacancy from the passing of Colin Hill. Val and Peter were happy to seek re-election and were duly elected back onto the Committee. John Fiddy had also advised he would be standing down form the Committee and he was thanked for all he had done over many years. Two vacancies now exist and if anyone would like to be co-opted onto the Committee, they would be welcome. Any Other Business Martin Hardy-shepherd asked that it be noted of our thanks to Tony Cable for sponsorship of the Draw tickets for which we are incredibly grateful. John Fiddy raised the issue of falling membership. This is despite handing out many application forms at events/Collections which are not returned. Also, Club membership in general is declining. Bob finally thanked the thirteen members and guests present for attending on an extremely hot day and closed the meet5ng.
