HVW EGM – 12.00pm Sunday 12th October 2025 at New Mill Club – The Future of the Club’.
Dear HVW Member,
The club are calling an EGM at 12.00pm on Sunday 12th October 2025 at New Mill Club, Sheffield Road, New Mill. HD9 7JT.
The meeting has one item for discussion – ‘The Future of the Club’.
Due to various reasons the club has seen a decline in membership numbers and members willing to take on the key roles to run the club. Sadly a lot of our old established members are no longer with us and the age demographic of the current members is getting older every year.
To this end the club can no longer function as it is. The only 2 real options are below:
- Dissolve the club & dispose of the assets.
- Current members volunteer to take on the key roles and continue to run the club.
The club has a considerable bank balance and a number of assets including the club trophies. If the decision was to dissolve the club the members would vote on how to dispose of these assets. A contribution to a scheme for the benefit of local cyclists or the local community or donations to a charity or various charities are amongst the options.
(If members decided that the club should continue, then the full agenda for an AGM would need to be followed.)
Current members and old HVW members are all invited to attend . Only current members are eligible to vote at the meeting.
The meeting will be followed by a buffet.
It would be helpful to assist with the catering if you can let us know as soon as possible if you or anyone else you invite will be coming.
