Dear Members
Jai Jinendra and Jai Shri Krishna
NVK Programme for 22 August - Annual General Meeting
In the past we have had our AGM on two Thursday afternoons. This year in order to have all committee members present at the AGM we had to have the AGM in one day. Hence the whole day yesterday was set aside for AGM.
Some of you have said that it was too long and some dial a ride members had to leave before they could caste their vote. Some people suggested that the voting for the committee members should have taken place in the morning. I have explained to those that have spoken to me yesterday that the committee business of the approval of minutes, President's report, Secretary's report and Treasurer's report and approval of accounts with AOB should be conducted by the current committee before it is dissolved to conduct the election of the new committee.
NVK awarded Patronship to Jayantibhai U Doshi and Baburai T Shah for their long and distinguished service to NVK since its inception in 2007. Both were also gifted a Sliver dish with the inscription -Navjivan Vadil Kendra 2024.
Donations:
- £151 from Ramaben Jayantibhai Doshi and family on the occasion of receiving the Patronship of NVK.
- £ 25 from an annonymous donor on the occasion of their grandson Veer successfully achieving his GCSE results.
The Kendra wishes to thank the above donors for their generous donations.
NVK would like to thank all those who assisted with the conduct of the AGM proceedings-the volunteers, the helpers who distributed the ballot papers, the helpers who counted the ballot papers and of course the Independent Returning Officer- Manharbhai Mehta.
