After the cancellation of our AGM set for June in the CVS centre, our Trustees decided to hold a public AGM using Zoom. We had reservations…would anyone come, would the internet drop out, would our speaker be willing, how do we do this over zoom……
We were really pleased to have 34 people attending. A wonderful mixture of Trustees, volunteers and partners from all sectors of the community. Vicky Japes gave us a really interesting background to and insight into the rationale of the Council ‘s Older People’s Accommodation Strategy as well as an update on specific accommodation projects. She made us all think about how we enable older people to stay in their own homes through making adaptations as necessary or moving to a new home that is more suitable to their needs. The emphasis being on ‘home’ which will mean different things to different people.
The AGM gave us the chance to celebrate our work in 2019-20, to publicly thank our volunteers and to look forward the future with OCAY continuing to thrive. Thank you for supporting us.
