Chair’s Report (DH)

Most committee roles were filled following the 2021 AGM. Thanks to those who volunteered. We have run a full programme of walks over the past year but continue to struggle for leaders. Walks no longer have to be pre-booked on eventbrite.

The group held 3 successful weekends in Killin, Yorkshire Dales and Lake District. The weekend in Kettlewell didn’t go ahead following an administrative error.

Current group Ramblers membership stands at 172. Down from 192 last year.

The Chair is stepping down after the meeting and thanks members for their help and support.

Treasurers Report (DH)

Current balance stands at a very healthy £3682. There are no current deposits in for weekends. The group had a £224 loss from the cancelled Kettlewell weekend.
