News from the Branch AGM 2022

Friday 25 February 2022

We have a few changes at the committee level.

Thomas has stepped down as Branch Chair after 4 years and John Webster has been re-elected after coming out off retirement at the spritely age of 71 years young. After not having a Branch Membership Secretary for the last 2 years we now have 2 sharing the role in Martyn Pashley and Gavin Robertson. Peter Cleggs’ time as Social Secretary as come to an end with John Ingham taking over. And one Alan replaces another with Alan Cottam taking on the Branch Contact role replacing Alan Leach. All other officers are continuing in their roles but we still have a few roles needing filling. See the Branch Contacts page for vacant positions.

A motion has been passed to move Branch meetings to Saturdays at 1:30pm, these will take place in each of the 6 areas with a social afterwards. Committee meetings will be on Sundays in Accrington and Burnley. The reason behind moving to weekend branch meetings is to try and get more people to the meetings and socials and to get more involved with the branch and volunteering roles/events. Keep an eye on the Branch Diary for dates and location of meetings.

After a mostly non active 2 years due to you know what things are moving ahead and you’re all invited along for the ride.

Cheers

The East Lancs Branch Committee
