Planning is now underway for the 2024 Club Annual General Meeting, which will take place on Tuesday 27th August at 7.00 p.m. at the Washington Wetland Centre, Barmston Lane, Pattinson, Washington NE38 8LE.

The documentation for the business part of the meeting will be added here over the next few weeks. and will be complete no later than 6 August, with most papers available well before that.

Half of the permitted twelve seats are likely to be vacant. A printable/downloadable form for nominations to the Board, to be received no later than Sunday 4 August, can be found here.

Following the business of the meeting there will be a talk by John Gowland, Reserve Manager at Washington Wetland Centre. This will be entitled The Wildlife of the Wetlands and will look at the diverse wildlife and habitat found at the Washington Wetland Centre, including birds, mammals, reptiles, amphibians, and birds, as well as at key projects such as the Willow Tit project.
