At the AGM we will:

Go through the Agenda
Receive the Chair's Report
Receive the Financial Report
Establish any annual subscription rates
Appoint an Auditor if so decided
Review our policy statements
Elect a Committee for the ensuing year comprising no less than five and up to ten CCRG Members
Consider any other business.
All are welcome to attend the AGM, but you need to be a Full or Student CCRG member living in the city centre boundaries, and attending in person to vote.
