MATTERS ARISING

None not covered by reports.

OFFICER’S REPORTS

Chairman

Paul said the Ladies Probus had rebuffed the approach from Mercia Club about merging. Our response if Mercia approached us remains that if individuals wished to join they should apply in the usual way.

The Trafalgar Day lunch has not been booked, a sign up list to be put out at next meeting on Friday.

Paul and Harry had visited Prescott to discuss matters arising from the Annual Lunch and were happy that the matters raised had been resolved.

The dress code for meetings, “smart casual, jacket preferred, tie optional”, will be reviewed at the next AGM.

Vice Chairman.

Harry has received a letter the Gurkha Welfare Trust following the talk at the last meeting. Donations (with Gift Aid) totalled £230 – enough for example to pay a Gurkha pension for 3 months. Letter to be read at next meeting.

Treasurer

John said all subs had been collected except for Lem Kerks who had not responded to reminders. Agreed his membership is lapsed. Brent Davies and Will Stebbings had resigned. Total subs £150 down on last year as number of new members outnumbered by increase in hon members and those resigning and dying.

Speaker costs likely to be about on target. Surplus of £70 on Wedgewood trip by selling seats to non-members to fill coach.

Programme Secretary.

The speaker for the meeting on Jan 10 has suggested giving the talk to a mixed audience. Agreed the meeting would be open to wives/partners. Because of room limit on number present, up to 30 non-members could attend.

John is experiencing pressure on the size of the speaker’s fee – agreed max of £75 including travel. Speakers have been booked to April 2020. More member talks are needed. Michael Dufton and David Wadsworth have talks prepared on the standby list. Suggested we could revive the Desert Island Discs show that had to be curtailed.

Events Secretary.

The Wedgewood, race night, and Brize Norton trips went well. Letter from Brize Norton thanking us for donation. 26 have put names down for the BBC Bristol trip out of a max of 32. List still open, money in August.

Trip to Aerospace Bristol will be left to the Spring.

Speakers & Equipment Steward.

Nothing to report. Thanks for recent cover.

Meeting Steward. Nothing to report.

Room Steward.

Geoff reiterated his wish to stand down at the AGM and will speak to possible replacements.

Welfare Officer.

John continues to keep in touch with several members who are unwell or infirm and gave an update.

Walks Co-ordinator.

Recce for the mid-week break walk still to be done. Next walk 17 July.

Web administrator.

A member had asked why wives/partners photos were not on the website. Explained that, as with the membership list, photos are to aid member identification.

A request was made for members mobile phone numbers as some difficulty was experienced finding Brize Norton and not being able to contact others on the way. Agreed secretary will email members after Paul’s announcement at the meeting on Friday.

Paul thanked Andrew for his work on the website and reports of meetings.

CORRESPONDENCE

Meeting dates in 2020 have been booked with Methodist Church. An email had been received from Ladies Probus asking if we wish to participate again with the Remembrance Day wreath and who should lay it, us or Mercia. Agreed to participate but open about laying – suggest Ladies with men escorting as last year.

ANY OTHER BUSINESS

Paul thanked Harry for standing in at the last minute for the last meeting.

MINUTES	of a meeting of the Committee held at Union Cottage, on Tuesday 9^th October 2018
PRESENT	Mike Hill (Chairman), Rex Butler, Paul Clark, Andrew Cordery, Roy Loudon, John Hayter, John Mackelworth, Brian Parry, Harry Thierens, John Williams
APOLOGIES	Geoff Cove, Tony Mason (Secretary),
1. MINUTES	The minutes of the committee meeting held on 17^th July 2018 were approved and signed as a true record.
2. MATTERS ARISING	Andrew clarified that under item 3(k) the £100 was per annum.
3. OFFICER’S REPORTS	a. Chairman. Mike confirmed that the Prescott Club House had been booked for the Annual Lunch on 11 January 2019. The menu has been selected. A full menu is awaited and will be published on website when available. At the moment the numbers were 40. The costs £23 per head includes a welcome drink with canapes, main course, pudding and tea/coffee. A £1 tip has been included. There will be entertainment. b. Vice Chairman. Paul will organise with the Corner Cupboard for Trafalgar Day, 21^st October 2019. c. Treasurer. As reported at the last meeting John was predicting that the current level of subs would not be sufficient in 2019. Based on a current paid up membership of 71, less moved away, new honorary, deaths and resignations, a worst case for membership was 60. This would require a subs of £30 to maintain the expenditure for the year of circa £1800. This could be improved if some of the members currently sick or incapacitated were to re-join and if any of current 3 or 4 prospective members were to sign up, then the number and therefore the predicted sub could change. It was agreed that Mike would give a ‘heads up’ to members at next meeting to advise of likely sub increase and to encourage new membership. d. Programme Secretary. Speakers have been booked to end September 2019. There was a discussion on the rising cost of speakers. Mindful of the treasurer’s remarks above it was agreed to look at more member’s profiles meetings – 2 this year against 3 last. There was an offer to visit to the Bugatti museum followed by lunch at Prescott. Mike to check availability and John M to tee up Geoff Kimber for members talk. Suggested date 22^nd March 2019. e. Events Secretary. Waverley trip was a success, 4 no shows, £32 profit was made. Next trip to ‘Yellow Hat Tribe’ on 13^th Nov in the morning, possibility of lunch afterwards, but not part of visit. f. Speakers & Equipment Steward. Everything OK. Mike has the club projector and Rex has the reserve machine, (agreed to pass to Paul as Rex away in Dec). It was suggested that committee should all become familiar with microphone set up. g. Room Steward. No report. h. Meeting Steward. Roy asked if the members list could be slimmed down to remove the members’ no longer attending. Several names were removed. i. Welfare Officer. John continues to keep in touch with several members who are unwell or infirm. Slow improvement in Rodney. j. Walks Co-ordinator. Mid-week break a success, hoping that there might be another one in 2019. Next walk is on 17^th October – from The Shutters, Gotherington. k. Webmaster. Nothing to report. l. Secretary. Nothing to report.	Action Paul Action Mike Action Mike & John M
4. OFFICERS FOR 2019	Tony to be asked to put out a list in November. Paul to prompt members at next meeting to consider standing, especially the newer members.	Action Tony/Paul
5. HONORARY MEMBERS	It was agreed to offer Honorary membership to Tom Hancock, David Farrar and Robin Reckitt.
6. CORRESPONDENCE	Tony had advised that the insurance was due (£66.60), for an extra fee of £15.34 this could be extended to include wives. The meeting agreed that this was not required.
7. ANY OTHER BUSINESS	a) The remembrance wreath has been ordered and will be collected by Mike. b) Members are not using the tins at the end of the meeting. Andrew offered to stand at the door and ‘encourage’ members to place the counters in the respective tins. Counters of the same colour would help the process. c) Andrew commented that he had heard that another organisation offering MIXED Probus type meetings was appearing – REBUS?? d) Was agreed that the Immediate Past Chairman should be an ‘ex officio’ member of the committee, to offer continuity.

APOLOGIES Roy Loudon

1. MINUTES
The minutes of the committee meeting held on 13th February 2018 were approved and signed as a true record.

2. MATTERS ARISING
None.

3. OFFICER’S REPORTS
Chairman. Mike confirmed that the Prescott Club House had been booked for the Annual Lunch on 11 January 2019. He has paid a deposit for an entertainer but was not giving details.

Vice Chairman. Good Friday in 2019 is a scheduled meeting date but, in accordance with Club practice, there will not be a meeting that day.

St George’s Day, 23rd April 2019 is the day after Easter Monday and Paul proposed that the Club do something different. Paul will enquire about having a lunch at the Corner Cupboard on Trafalgar Day, 21st October 2019.

Paul initiated a discussion on succession planning for nomination 2019 Vice Chairman. This should be someone with experience of being on the committee and Harry agreed to stand. A new Events Secretary will be needed and newer Club members encouraged to join the committee.

Treasurer. The average speaker cost this year is £47. John had done a projection of income and costs for 2019 and concluded that there would be a budget shortfall based on current membership and subscription levels. Subscription has not been increased for several years and an increase of probably £1 (to £26) will be proposed at the AGM in 2019.

Programme Secretary. Speakers have been booked to end June 2019. The speaker booked for the next meeting (29th July) has had to cancel but a replacement has been organised.

Lent lunches will again be in the Methodist Hall in 2019 (8th March to 12th April inclusive) but the speakers who have been booked for this period will probably need blackout so the Methodist Church is not really suitable.

Events Secretary. The trip to Clearwell Caves has been cancelled because, although initial interest was high, people had dropped out for a variety of reasons. The Waverley cruise has 44 people but Harry would like another person to make the 45 originally booked. Sailing is quite early but food is available on board for lunch.

Harry is looking to arrange a visit later in the year, possibly Wedgwood.

Speakers & Equipment Steward. Everything OK. John M has the club projector and Harry has the reserve machine. The whereabouts of the projector that Andrew loaned the club is unknown.

Meeting Steward. No report.

Room Steward. The rota for setting is working well. Geoff said he will do 1 more year in post.

Welfare Officer. John continues to keep in touch with several members who are unwell or infirm.

Walks Co-ordinator. 40 people have booked accommodation in Hay-on-Wye for the mid-week break in October. The recce party for the walk on the Wednesday will go to Hay on Monday.

The next walk is 25th July from the Royal Oak in Andoversford.

Webmaster. The cost of the website is £100 which is considered good value.

Secretary. Nothing to report.

4. DRESS CODE

It was noted that some potential new members had been deterred by the fact the current dress code is jacket and tie. It was agreed that when the summer relaxation (Chairman’s discretion) ends, the dress code for the remainder of the year will “smart casual, jacket preferred, tie optional” and a vote will be taken at the AGM on this.

5. VENUE FOR MEETINGS

The Working Mens Club was OK but could have been better. Requests for a hearing loop and a large drop screen had been made but were rejected by the WMC. More chairs instead of tables facing the speaker would have improved the venue.

It was decided to continue with meetings in the Methodist Hall although meetings during Lent 2019 may be in the WMC. Subsequent enquiry found WMC politely declined to host the Club again.

6. DATA PROTECTION AND PRIVACY NOTICE

Most members have consented to continued contact from the Club under GDPR. Those that have not are either very poorly or infrequent attendees. They will still receive contact from the Club until such time as they request otherwise.

7. CORRESPONDENCE The bookings officer for the Methodist Hall is now Linda Maggs, 15 Delavale Road, tel. 603330

8. ANY OTHER BUSINESS
The impact on our Club of the Mercia Club change to Friday meetings is not known. Mike will try and arrange a joint event with Mercia although invitations to join our outings had not seen any take up.

The Duty First Aider on the rota for the last meeting was not present. Programme Secretary will in future advise the name of the Duty First Aider to the Chairman prior to meetings.

1. MINUTES	The minutes of the committee meeting held on 14^th October 2016 were approved and signed as a true record.
2. MATTERS ARISING	Item 2, a draft procedure code for situations during meetings when first aid may be required was discussed and John W will contact club members known to have had first aid training. Item 3f – a new radio mike has been bought and the question arose what to do with the old one. It was suggested that it could be useful when there is more than one speaker at a meeting. Item 3g – Stewart had contacted three members who had attended very few meetings in 2016.	Action John W
3. OFFICER’S REPORTS	a. Chairman. John needs to book a venue for the annual lunch in January 2018 and in response to suggesting a return to Dumbleton Hall, dissatisfaction was expressed with the fish main course. Various alternatives venues were considered but some such may be too expensive unless they waive the room hire charge (as Dumbleton have). Only 35 names are down for the traditional St George’s Day lunch and the future of this was discussed as previously a waiting list would have been started. Lloyds bank closure – we will keep our account with them while John H is Treasurer. Thanks to Mike for organising the trip to the gin palace. b. Vice Chairman. Nothing to report. c. Treasurer. 45 subscriptions had been paid prior to the meeting. It was agreed that the membership cap would not apply until attendance at 3 consecutive meetings was 60 or over. d. Programme Secretary. The 2017 programme is on the web and circulated. Members are willing to give their profile but reluctant to commit to dates. Paul has said, if they can’t do the date in the programme, can they swap with another member in the programme. 2018 programme being compiled. Paul asked for volunteers to pick up the speaker for 5 May as he doesn’t drive. e. Events Secretary. Harry is working on a trip to Fleet Air Arm, Yeovilton, on May 2^nd and a trip to Clearwell Caves in June/July. Also an autumn trip to Batsford arboretum. He has a number of other ideas to work on as well. f. Speakers & Equipment Steward. See matters arising above. g. Meeting Steward. Early in the year so no report on attendance or speaker ratings. h. Room Steward. Geoff has a rota of volunteers to set up the room for meetings. i. Welfare Officer. John continues to write or send cards. He is keeping in touch with several members, some of whom are quite poorly. Paul asked John to keep an eye on the programme in case any member who was down for a vote of thanks was unlikely to attend and let Paul know. j. Walks Co-ordinator. Next walk 15^th February, the March walk will be on 22nd, not the 3^rd Wednesday in the month. k. Secretary. Nothing to report. l. Webmaster / Archivist. Nothing to report.
4. MEMBERSHIP	Two members are not renewing their membership and another was lapsed by the committee. However, an application for membership was accepted and there are 3 prospective members.
5. CORRESPONDENCE	The Methodist Church has revised their safeguarding policy and users of the hall are asked sign up to it. Agreed.
