Our Annual General Meeting 2025

Having recently held our 2025 AGM, we are pleased to announce Paul Grundy as our new Chairperson. Paul’s thoughtful contributions as a trustee have been so appreciated and we know he will bring his incredible wealth of experience and strong leadership to this new role.

At the same time, we extend our heartfelt thanks to Margot Minétt Earwaker for her dedicated service as Chairperson.   We will continue to benefit from Margot’s passion for volunteering, and commitment to community engagement as she remains a key part of our board of governance in the role of Secretary.  We’re deeply grateful for all she’s done.
