Thanks Simon and Alex. How's the week commencing 7th July for everyone? Maybe Tuesday the 8th?

As Simon has pointed out, we are a relatively new organisation with some new trustees, & while some decisions are OK to make by email, there's no adequate substitute for meeting together.

Sorry we didn't meet this time, but I'm happy to discuss any questions or issues arising from my report should trustees wish to raise them via email. If anyone would rather raise any issues one to one I'm happy to talk over the phone if you wish to: 07712590008. I'll do my best to ensure the next meeting takes place. The next quarter would take us to August, but I'd like to avoid meeting near the bank holiday weekend as I know that might be tricky if people are going to make a long weekend out of it. I was thinking mid-August, perhaps week commencing 11th? How does that fit with everyone? As five out of the nine voting trustees have now supported Mokshini's inclusion to the board, I'll get in touch with her to give her the good news.

Please can you let us all know when the next meeting is scheduled? I think it's important we meet quarterly, particularly as we are a new organisation with few procedures in place to agree what the work plan is etc. Also, it enables us to ask questions about the work you've done so far. In terms of Mokshini Grant, the proposal gets my vote.

Although we've made quite a lot of progress, there is only one decision on the agenda (to approve or reject an additional trustee). After speaking with the chair, we've decided we should make that decision over email rather than go to the trouble of meeting as it would save a lot of unnecessary travel time. Please do offer any feedback and comments on the report, and share your thoughts on the proposed inclusion of Mokshini Grant to the board of trustees.
