Annual General Meeting - 18th January, 2016


At our Annual General Meeting, the group's Chair, Eileen Masters, gave a summary of the year, covering such topics as stabilising the membership, reviewing the constitution and continuing to publish an annual anthology. Then Sam Davey, the Treasurer, presented her financial report, which showed the group to be in good shape and showing a small surplus. There will be changes to the committee this year: Marica Woolf will become Membership Officer while Amanda Giles will take on the role of Programme Officer. We then moved on to choosing a cover for this year's anthology, which will raise funds for Hastings Pier Charity and will have Hastings as its theme. Finally, Marcia Woolf read her winning 3000-word Catherine Cookson Cup story, which received a rave review from the judge, a talent scout from a literary agency.
