UPDATE
John
Thurso and the H&S Executive have been chasing up Maxi’s mess and seem
to be making some headway.
Katrina
attended a meeting with Mr Whitelaw, Jim Oag and John Rosie – the
first one giving them an update on how we are progressing the second
meeting was on how we could progress. They have decided to facilitate
a partnership of organisation who can help with the association. They
will sit outside the partnership and representatives from the
organisation will site on the partnership. These representatives will
act on behalf of the organisation taking their ideas forward and
feeding them back to the group. The group will be responsible for
deciding on projects outside the agency and attract funding from
national charities like the lottery or the Tudor to name but a few.
Also looking into having an entertainment group set up to look at
organising small fund raising events and organise
outings/parties/fireworks. 10 people to be asked to be in this group.
