Annual General Meeting (AGM)

The AGM provides an opportunity for Trustees, members and interested parties to come together, review the past year’s activities, and plan for the future. During the AGM, the trustees present detailed reports on the association’s activities, achievements, and challenges.
One of the key aspects of the AGM is the scrutiny of the association’s finances. The Treasurer presents a financial report, including income, expenditures, and any surplus or deficit. This report is thoroughly examined by the members, and any questions or concerns are addressed. This process ensures transparency and accountability in the association’s financial management.
