Objectives
Increasing membership was to be centre stage in the boards activities to which end it was resolved that a `Consultation Exercise `would be undertaken to assess the views of County supporters.
Our role as the voice of County supporters to the club, will continue as we seek to arrange a meeting with them to discuss matters of mutual concern.
In other matters it was confirmed we had re-submitted our ACV application renewal regarding Edgeley Park to Stockport Council.
In addition, a raft of upcoming events were discussed, along with the probability of a number of online raffles / auctions and it was particularly gratifying to confirm a bucket collection on behalf of the Wellspring earmarked for the home game with Sutton on 16 December.
Await further details on this one!

Following the AGM situation, we are required by rule to hold a Special General Meeting in February, date to be agreed, with minimum 20
attendees for quorum- board members to encourage members to attend.
