It is good practice to have a standard agenda with AOB, and chat about group process as part of it.
Group Process
- General committee – nothing to report
- Recruitment – communications good. Recruitment team running the St Buryan ‘afterglow’, coming to the market stall.
- At a recent rehearsal Richard Green announced that the St Buryan concert and afterglow needed arranging, with raffle. They had met as a committee at half time, but Steve F was not present. We, embarrassingly, had to say we had it organised. I spoke to Richard afterwards and he was fine. He asked whether we were going to organise this stuff in future.
