It’s a month since our 2024 AGM in Kenilworth, as always we thoroughly enjoyed the event and the company of CSPA delegates from Groups and Branches from around the UK.
It was a lively and engaging few days, and we are grateful to the CSPA Group and Branch representatives who submitted and spoke to the motions, as those that were carried will direct our campaigning priorities for the next year.
A comprehensive record of the 2024 AGM will be included as a supplement within the next issue of The Pensioner magazine that is due to be delivered in early December.
For those of you that weren’t present, or those that want another look, speaker presenations can be viewed in the document library.
Chair and Executive Council updates
We are pleased to welcome Les Priestley, who was elected as CSPA’s new Chair, whilst extending our heartfelt thanks to Linda Ridgers-Waite who has served so ably as our outgoing Chair, and formerly Vice Chair, in recent years. We are happy to see Linda staying on the EC in one of the national posts, and to have Mike Buckley and Pamela Flynn newly elected. Of course, we remain grateful for the continued efforts of those EC officers who were re-elected, and to others who have recently stood down. CSPA’s Wessex Region has a newly elected representative in John Clarke, and I am sure members in that part of the country will be hearing from him soon.
