The Kensington Society AGM 2021

Monday 7 June 2021, 5.45pm for a 6.00pm start

Online virtual event via Teams

The Kensington Society’s Annual General Meeting had to be cancelled at short notice last year, due to Covid and the first lockdown. This year we must still bow to the ways of Covid, but will hold an online virtual meeting covering both years. It is not ideal, but we do believe that it is the safest way.

Although there won’t be the usual drinks party afterwards in the Mayor’s Parlour, those attending are encouraged to bring their own drinks of choice to the meeting. That way we may be able to have a toast afterwards, as usual.

We hope you can join the meeting online, vote and ask questions – the votes will be to approve the accounts and the election of trustees. If you want to attend, please register below. All who register will receive an email with the joining link and instructions before the meeting.

Those who attend will vote by raising their hand (in camera or by selecting the virtual hand) and those wishing to ask questions can also do so during the meeting.

If you are unable to join the meeting, but want to vote (regarding approval of the accounts – found in the annual – and election of trustees) or submit questions, please send your votes and/or questions either by email (to kensingtonsociety@outlook.com) or by post (to The Kensington Society, 95 Highlever Road, London W10 6PW). All written votes and questions must reach us no later than 1 June 2021.
