Autumn General Committee Meeting notes

The autumn general committee meeting was held at Kirtlington last Saturday (22nd November).  The minutes will be published in due course but there are a couple of things that I thought might be of general interest:

  1. While all ODG none officer members are required to hold the Safeguarding Basic Awareness training certificate officers who are required to hold higher levels of training don’t need to complete Basic Awareness as well.
  2. 2026 subs (due 1/1/26) will again be £10 and collected by the old method that you are acustomed to.  It is proving a big issue to resolve all the different ways members pay subs, some are paid by PPCs, some from tower funds, some want to use payment Apps others bank transfer and some Branches add their own subs on top.  Nightmare.
