How The Club is Managed

The Committee

The Committee consists of members who give up their time to help manage the Club’s affairs. The Club Offices are arranged into President, Chairman, and Committee Members. Sub-Committees provide focus in particular areas. The Committee Members are proposed and elected at the Annual General Meeting (AGM), usually in the second quarter of the year. Trustees are proposed and elected at the AGM when a vacancy arises.

Management of the Club's affairs is divided into sub-Committees consisting of Finance, Human Resources, Building and House, Bars, Entertainment and Membership. A secretary is employed to carry out the office administration. The principal Committee Members are listed below and all your current Committee Members are shown on the noticeboard.

The Committee manages the framework within which the Club operates, and makes informed decisions on behalf of Club members in order to meet the Club’s Goal which is “to provide a social environment that encourages membership contentment, growth, value for money, and futurity”.

As the Club is an unincorporated body, the Trustees are the elected legal owners of the Club and act on behalf of the member’s wishes.

Ultimately, the Club is managed by you - for your benefit. If you have skills to offer the Club, suggestions or complaints then write to the Committee. If you are unhappy with the way in which the Club is managed and think that you have talents to offer then arrange to be proposed and seconded as a Committee member at the Annual General Meeting.

Catering

A separate franchise is arranged for the provision of Club catering. Kitchen and serving staff are covered by this franchise. Available food and prices are shown on the General Menu and Daily Specials are shown on a board at the Bar. Special needs, suggestions and complaints should be made directly to the franchisee. Should they occur, persistent problems or suggestions should be reported to the Committee.
