Another SWaNG AGM, another year older…

The Slingsby Website and Newsletter Group held its 2019 AGM on Wednesday 27th November. We are 9 years old. The meeting, held as usual in the warm and convivial Grapes Inn, was well attended and very productive. We reported on another successful year. The meeting welcomed a new treasurer and elected the committee. It was good to listen to feedback from a range of residents and get some ideas for the future. Our thanks go to them and of course to all the team at the Grapes.

The minutes of the AGM together with all the reports which were submitted can be found on our website here.
