AGM 18 September - save the date!
From our Secretary Carmel McCoughlin
Dear Friends,
The Annual General Meeting (AGM) of the Friends of the Scrubs will be held on Thursday 18th September 2025 at Brickfields Hall, 68A Eynham Road, London W12 0HA at 6.30pm.
There will be all the usual items at an AGM, (Review of the past year, Accounts, etc) and discussion about issues facing the Scrubs.
We expect discussion of the proposed works in the Masterplan.
The Charity’s constitution says that three existing Trustees must stand down at each AGM, and it is the turn of Stephen Waley-Cohen (Chair), Smita Dave (Treasurer) and myself Carmel McLoughlin (Secretary to the Charity) who are all retiring under the rotation rules. We are very fortunate in that all three trustees are offering themselves for re-election. If any Friend wishes to put themselves forward and contest these three to become a Trustee, they should first contact Stephen Waley-Cohen at stephen@swc-office.co.uk to discuss what being a Trustee involves, and then if they wish to, they must send their full details (including name, address, email address, phone number, length of time as a Friend) together with a short statement as to why they wish to be a Trustee of the Charity and what skills they can bring to the role, via email to Carmel McLoughlin, Secretary and Trustee of The Friends of the Scrubs at cmfowws@gmail.com. This needs to be received no later than 23:59 on Tuesday 26th August 2025. Details of all candidates standing for election, or re-election, as trustee will be circulated to all Friends with the formal Notice of the AGM. If there are any additional candidates for election as Trustee, then there will be a vote at the AGM on the 18thSeptember, with the opportunity to vote by proxy if you cannot attend in person.
The Trustees hope many of you will attend this year and we plan to stay after the meeting to join Friends in conversation and refreshments. Do come if you can.
Regards,
Carmel McLoughlin
