1. Officers Reports
Lindsay gave the treasurers report. She reported that the Charity had raised £2338.07 in the last year. £2000 of which had been given to the Cathedral Partnership in Bangor for feeding and helping the Street homeless in Bangor. The rest apart from £70 donations and £0.06p. interest had been spent on expenses and insurance incurred in street singing, the Llanfairfestival on August Bank Holiday last year and the Spanish Evening.
Linsday suggested that the Bank Account be moved from the Co-operative to the HSBC as the administration of the account was proving difficult with no branch nearby. All members agreed and passed nem con.
Evelyn and Rosie outlined the activities and the successful fundraising ventures during the year. They reported that they were continuing to hold informal singing sessions at the Garth Road Community Centre every 2 weeks on a Friday evening.

Carol singing in Llanfairfechan was discussed as was a possible event in the Cathedral grounds – to be discussed with Randolph.
Linz said she planning to do a half marathon fund raiser in October and a realy walk was suggested.
Evelyn said she had an offer from a friend who was happy to do print-making classes for the homeless for free – as long as we could cover materials and expenses. Evelyn suggested the Gallery in Bangor as a possible venue.
