Our December 2021 meeting did not have any speakers. We had entertainment from Geordie Heaney and our social committee put on a great spread and it was a great way to end the year. We’ll probably do it again in 2022.

 

 

 

 

 

We had our first annual general meeting in September after the first planned AGM was cancelled in August due to COVID. It was successful and we had our constitution ratified by the active members and the submission to the Australian Charities and Not-For-Profits Commission was successful and the group is now a registered charity. It also led to us being recognised for donation tax concessions by the Australian Tax Office. Our next AGM is on 8th Spetember 2022  and we will hopefully see the group fully realising its aim to have full succession in place.

COVID restrictions have been dropped for now but COVID is likely to remain with us for some time and members will be notified of any specific requirements at meetings and social events including vaccination, food distribution and cleaning.
