AGM is our Annual General Meeting, a legal requirement of us as a charitable membership organisation.
Normally, votes are taken on different agenda items that have been proposed prior to the meeting. Regular agenda items include:
Other agenda items can be proposed before the AGM by emailing csu@chester.ac.uk up to one week prior to the meeting.
A quorum is defined as the minimum number of members required to be present in order for the business of the meeting to be conducted. Currently, this stands at 25 members. If attendance at AGM fails to meet quorum, the meeting will reconvene at a later date with no quoracy requirement.
If you can't attend, we can help you to arrange a proxy voter. You'll tell your proxy voter how you intend to vote on each motion before AGM and they will submit your votes on your behalf. As this takes some arrangement, we require all proxies to be in place by 5 working days before the AGM.
You can organise a proxy by filling in this form: Appointment of Proxy Form and returning it to csu@chester.ac.uk.
