Help wanted

During its Annual General Meeting last November, those present felt that the Trust should strive to grow its membership so that it has a louder voice in its mission of:
- developing the relationship with the club
- increasing supporter influence
- promoting supporter involvement

Better late than never I guess. I was one of the original steering group. Became very disillusioned back then. I now do not have the resources to commit time to the project. Shame, big opportunity missed.
