Annual General Meeting

AGMs must be held every year within 15 months of the previous meeting and must have at least 50 qualifying members present in person or by proxy to form a quorum. Learn more about our Annual General Meetings here.

About AGMs

The meetings generally cover three aspects:

Company business matters, accounts, auditor etc, (ordinary resolutions)
Elections of directors (ordinary resolutions)
Special Resolutions

Special resolutions cover changes to the Articles of Association that the Board feel it appropriate to bring before the general membership. By law, special resolutions require the approval of 75% of the members voting to be carried. Ordinary resolutions require a simple majority. Informally, AGMs can also be a good opportunity to discuss topics of orienteering importance, inform the membership and gather opinions.
