Association General Meeting – 15th September 2025

HI everyone. Our next Association General Meeting will be held on Monday 15th September 2025 at 7.30pm at the Oakwood Centre in Woodley.

Rather than having a guest speaker this time and as it six months since the last AGM, we thought it would be a good idea to give a ‘Half-Term’ report on what the Committee has been doing over the last six-months and what the Committee is intending to do over the next six months. This evening will also include by a Question & Answer session.

So if you have time, please come along, hear what has been happening, bring your suggestions and also anything you would like to see changed.

Looking forward to seeing you on the 15th.

Many thanks &
Kind regards

Mike McNamara
Chair – WATA Committee
