What is the AGM?

The Annual General Meeting (AGM) is your chance to tell us what matters to you and help shape our work, now and for generations to come. If you're a member, you can attend the AGM to share views on a range of subjects and vote on topics (members' resolutions) that have been proposed in advance by fellow members. You don't need to attend the AGM in order to vote, however you will need to vote in advance to have your say in the elections – the results of which are announced at the AGM.
