MEOTRA AGM 7th May 2025

In readiness for the AGM which takes place on Wednesday 7th May, read on for all the information you need:

1. Where and when is it?

Wednesday 7th May at Epainos Church (Lichfield Road entrance). Doors open at 6:45pm in readiness for a 7:00pm start. 

2. What’s on the Agenda? 

The proposed Agenda is below. If you would like to add an item to the Agenda please email committee@meotra.org by midnight on 23rd April, 2025. The final Agenda will be circulated before the meeting by email and it’ll also be available on this website.

3. Are there any other documents to look at? 

The Accounts and Treasurer’s Report will be shared in the meeting where they will be formally adopted.

4. Will printed versions of the documents be available on the night?

We will print out a limited number of copies of the Agenda, Accounts and Treasurer’s Report. These will be available on the welcome desk at the meeting. If you can view the documents electronically on the night please let someone who needs the printed version more take these. We will share a QR code on the night that links to everything so that you can view on your phone/ipad.

5. Where are the Minutes from last year’s AGM?

The Minutes from last year’s AGM are available here. These were sent to everyone on the MEOTRA mailing list on 27th April 2024 with an opportunity for comment/corrections at that time.

6. Can I bring my children to the meeting?

Yes! We know that caring responsibilities can make it tricky to attend evening meetings. To make it more accessible we will have a children’s corner with a gentle film on the projector and snacks specifically for our youngest residents.

7. I’m not sure I can attend for the whole meeting - should I still come?

Please don’t worry if you need to leave midway through or can only arrive late - you’re still very welcome!

8. I’m thinking of joining the committee. What do I need to do? 

We are on the hunt for new committee members. We can’t do everything we aspire to do on behalf of the community without your help. Joining the committee is a brilliant way to help shape the community and make things even better. If you’d like to join, please let us know in advance at committee@meotra.org or put yourself forward on the night. If you have any questions about what being on the committee entails, send us an email and we’ll happily have a chat. We’ll also leave this here: Why volunteering is one of the most powerful things you can do for your health.

9. Why should I come? 

We know that ‘AGM’ doesn’t always scream “great night out", but we encourage everyone in the MEOTRA area to attend. It’s an excellent opportunity to discuss what’s going on in the area, meet new friends and neighbours and also have a say in how we can make this an even more positive place to live.

We’ll also provide snacks, soft drinks and wine.

10. I have another question

Email us at committee@meotra.org and we’ll be back in touch. 

We look forward to seeing you on 7th May.
