We're thrilled to invite you to our 2021-22 AGM, where we'll be reflecting on the past year and looking forward to how our brilliant sector can be more enterprising.

Following on from the success of Wakefield District's Funders Fair in September, you asked us for more opportunities to network and get that all-important funding support - and we're more than happy to do so!

Book your free ticket now, we can't wait to see you there.

Appointing Directors

At every AGM, one-third of the elected Directors must stand down and put themselves up for re-election. At this AGM we will be asking members to re-elect three of our existing Directors: Mohammed Ayub, Hayley Grocock, and Peter Taylor who have retired by rotation.

We will also be asking members to elect three new Directors: Samantha Davis, Janet Archbold, and Lucy Ndlovu.

If you are unable to attend the AGM and wish to appoint a proxy, please contact Nova on 01924 367418 or at info@nova-wd.org.uk and we can advise you on who you can appoint as your proxy.

You can find the papers, biographies and proxy voting form here.
