Annual General Meeting 2021
The Friends’ 2021 AGM would normally be held at the end of June. As that is very close to the possible end of Covid restrictions, we have decided to run the AGM by post again this year. We will follow the same timescale as last year as that seemed to work well. This means:
1. a nomination form for any additional Trustees and an explanation of the postal arrangements should have been received by all members following posting on 1 June.
2. on 1 July all AGM papers will be sent to all members on the latest membership list. These will include the Trustees’ Report; the Treasurer’s report and 2020/21 accounts; Membership Secretary’s Report and a voting form including the election of Trustees and the Honorary Auditor.

All voting papers will need to be returned to the Chairman, Sue Kelsall, by 17:00 on 9 August.
A full report of the outcome of the AGM will be placed here, on The Friends’ Website, shortly afterwards.

The Friends of Honeywood Museum - Donations and Membership Renewals
The Friends' Finances
As you can imagine, the situation since the start of the pandemic in March 2020 is impacting negatively on the Friends’ income. With Honeywood having been closed off and on for so long we have lost the significant income that we would normally receive through our shop and donations box, as well as that we would have enjoyed through our many events. In addition, people are understandably finding it difficult to pay their Membership Subscriptions and/or make Donations.
Many of our Members pay their subscriptions by way of Standing Orders, and this source of income is very welcome and indeed much needed. Please do continue with these Standing Orders if your circumstances allow.
