The existing committee members will all be standing down so if anyone would like to put their names
down for any of the positions on the committee please let us know. You will need a proposer and
seconder. Club members can also be co-opted (if willing) to support the running of the Branch. This helps to share the load and makes everybody’s life much easier. Helping to set up an event display being a good example of this.
