GSL's Meeting - Cancelled
2024-04-10 19:30 - 21:30 | Worcestershire
Following Ben’s post last week we’ve decided to postpone this meeting. It clashes with our St George’s Day committee meeting plus we feel there’s been so much going on we could all do with catching our breath . What we would like to propose though is that as many people as possible sign up to the 24th April Trustee workshop @ 2nd that Derek contacted you all about recently. Our take-up has been very low , if time permits we could have a brief meeting at the end. Appreciate that the past couple of months have been quite intense but we’d like to thank you all for your support, understanding and co- operation with everything that we’ve bombarded you with from compliance to growth & development. Thank you
