Old Buckenham 2000 Trust

Trust has its AGM
The Old Buckenham 2000 Trust held their AGM on Wednesday 15 May in the Church Rooms.
The Chairman’s report was a brief resume of activities during the year which consisted of a 10k run in April 2018 and a Disco in February 2019, both events raising substantial sums of money to be distributed to various village organisations. Another 10k run is scheduled for Sunday 9 June this year and another successful event is anticipated.
The annual Christmas Sainsbury collection for the St Martins Housing Trust took place and the day was organised by Terri and Steve Hammond on behalf of the OB 2000 Trust.
The Trust currently has five trustees and would be keen to talk to any interested prospective members with a view to increasing the number to between six and nine.
The Treasurer reported that the Trust currently has a healthy balance after making several payments. The 10k run raised funds for the Church ‘Raise the Roof’ appeal in excess of £2000. The Disco raised £381 awarded to the local Scouts Group and £190 was awarded to the Brownies. Both groups were very appreciative of these funds and have expressed their intentions to put the monies towards future planned events and trips.
All trustees were prepared to remain for another year and with no other attendees present the status quo was retained. All current holders were re-elected en-bloc with the introduction of a position for a Communications Officer, these duties are to be undertaken by Meg Batchelor.
It was agreed that the AGM needed to be advertised locally and the Secretary is to maintain an administration diary to ensure everybody is kept informed of meetings and other activities.
The next AGM has been arranged for Wednesday 13 June 2020 in the Church Rooms at 8pm.
