SLU3A news Newsletter of the South Leicestershire U3A Website: Registered Charity Number 1122153 Issue No. 188 March 2016 NEXT MONTH S MEETING MONDAY APRIL 11TH DAVID GREENHALGH OPERATION RUBY TALE TODAY S MEETING MONDAY MARCH 14TH ANN BIRD ROSES THE MAY AGM: NEW CONSTITUTION, NEW COMMITTTEE Constitutions can be tricky things: apparently bor-ing, thought unimportant, at least until something happens which affects our interest. Constitutions (written and unwritten) are what lay down the rules of the game the way we do our business; run our country, and even establish a local football team or charity. All charities are subject to charity law, overseen by the Charity Commissioners, and SLU3A is no ex-ception. This is why May s AGM is important, as chair Don Collins highlights elsewhere on this page. Putting it bluntly, if SLU3A is to continue to exist and flourish it must amend its constitution to bring it in line with other U3As and the national body, and ensure it meets the law as interpreted by the Charity Commission.
SLU3A News 2 Our New onstitution (Subject to the consent of the harity ommission ) The existing constitution, which was approved by the membership in May 2002, defines why our organisation exists and how it is managed.
