The Guild’s AGM is set for Tuesday, June 22nd from 7 – 8.30 pm BST and will take place virtually via Zoom.
All members of the Guild are welcome to attend and hear from the Guild’s Board on achievements over the past year and plans for the future. Full members are entitled to vote at the AGM; Associate and Corporate members are welcome to join us, but may not vote.
Election of Board directors
The following directors are retiring by rotation: Frances Brace, Pete Brown, and Annabel Smith. Robert Humphreys, as a co-opted director, must also retire. This leaves us with three vacancies on the Board.
Pete will be standing for re-election; Frances, Annabel and Robert have chosen to step down. We are incredibly grateful to them for their many contributions to the Board over the years.
If you would like to stand for election you will need to complete a nomination form, signed by you and by two Full Guild members as proposer and seconder. Please download the form from the Guild website, complete it and return it by email to secretary@beerguild.co.uk no later than April 20th.
If you would like to find out more about being a Director of the Guild, please email our Chair, Pete Brown on petebrownsemail@googlemail.com.
Motions for discussion
Full members may propose a motion for discussion at the AGM. These must be received by May 11th via email to secretary@beerguild.co.uk.
Voting and proxy voting
Like last year, the voting for the Election of Board Directors will take place online in advance of the AGM. Voting for or against motions will take place live during the AGM using Zoom’s poll function. More information on proxy voting, for Full members who are unable to attend, will follow in the coming weeks.
