CEO of NALC speaks at Berkshire AGM

Berkshire Association of Local Councils held its AGM on Bonfire night at Grazeley Village Hall. The speaker was Dr. Jonathan Owen, Chief Executive Officer of NALC.

Representatives from member councils agreed at the AGM to no increase in the BALC element of the subscription and received the accounts and annual report. 

The title of Jonathan Owens talk was Improving Local Communities together! He  talked about his first 6 months in the job and the challenges facing our sector as we come up to elections next year. Jonathan outlined how NALC was seen as the 'go to' organisation by central government for the town and parish councils sector, although that didn't always mean that we were listened to!

The presentation is here. All members councils will have received a copy of the BALC Annual Report with their invitation to the AGM which includes the accounts. Please come to next years AGM which will be at the beginning of November 2015
