The CVS Falkirk 2022 Annual General Meeting (AGM) will take place in-person on Thursday 24^th November 2022, at St Francis Xavier’s Church Hall (across from Morrison’s Petrol Station), 1 Hope Street, Falkirk, FK1 5AT.

The hall will be open for registration, food and refreshments from 1:15pm, with the AGM beginning at 2pm.

During the AGM, we will look back at our work during 2021/22, noting our highlights and key moments, along with the continued incredible efforts of the sector and our partners throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, and how we supported them. Following the AGM business, our team will speak about our new initiative, “Finding Funding for Falkirk”: an overview of support, guidance and resources available from CVS Falkirk.

We are delighted to confirm our guest speaker, Jennifer Mitchell (Funding Manager at The National Lottery Community Fund Scotland’s Central Team), who will deliver a presentation on the various funding streams available through the National Lottery, and the strands they’re working on around cost-of-living response.

Our AGM is a fantastic opportunity to meet our staff and board team in person, and learn more about what we do to support the third sector in Falkirk District. We hope you’ll be able to join us on the day.
