Creative LETS AGM
13.00 Sat Oct 28th
South Bohemia Gallery
196 Smithdown Rd
Liverpool 15
Important: Please Read
Dear Creative LETS member,
Both myself and Lis Edgar have been officers of Creative Lets for the last three years, as treasurer and secretary respectively, during which time we have shouldered a large part of the running of the organisation.
However, we’re feeling a bit burnt out, and we have other pressing demands on our time, so we have decided not to put ourselves forward for re-election this year.
Clearly, this has serious implications for the organisation – if no-one comes forward to do those jobs, then Creative Lets will quietly fold.
However, if you feel that it is something that you would like to take on, then Lis and i are both happy to remain as committee members, show the new people the ropes, take on a reduced workload, and the organisation can go forward with an injection of energy and enthusiasm.
For the right people, it is potentially a rewarding thing to take on, and we have sorted out a lot of the foundations in the last three years, but you can’t operate in top gear indefinitely, and we feel it’s time to pass it on, although we wouldn’t be cutting and running; what we’ve found out would still stay within the organisation. If you think that this would suit you, then come along to the AGM, or contact us beforehand if you can’t make the meeting. Otherwise, it was a bold experiment, and it’s time to let it go, i guess.
