This year’s AGM will be held on Wednesday 21st March at St Matthews’ Church.
Doors open 7.30 and AGM at 8pm. Two talks, one by Guy Bentham Hill about keeping our period houses warm and another on the empty offices of Broadmead by John Frenkel.
Take this opportunity to meet your neighbours and find out what is happening in Kingsdown. There will be refreshments available.
Our annual AGM will be held at St Matthews’ Church on Wednesday 21st March. Doors open at 7.30 and the AGM, starts at 8pm with two talks of interest afterwards. The first will be given by the City’s Conservation officer, Guy Bentham-Hill, and will give us guidelines and suggestions on how to make our Kingsdown (and mainly period) properties more energy efficient. Just remember back to those very cold days at the beginning of the year! Then John Frenkel will give a short talk on what is happening down the hill from us in Broadmead and all those empty office buildings.
Afterwards there will be plenty of time to discuss all issues relating to these talks and anything else of Kingsdown interest with your neighbours over a glass of wine.
Everyone welcome, members new and old and anyone who wishes to join the KCG. This is a good chance to ask any new neighbours to come along and meet more of the Kingsdown community.
Unfortunately, I will be unable to make the AGM on 21st March but would very much like to encourage Kingsdown residents to upload photographs to the online photography site Flickr so that we can have a community album of photographs. Flickr is free and easy to join.KCG has a great site for collecting images, but all the photographs have to be sent to one person for uploading, so I have created a group under the name Kingsdown on Flickr and anyone can upload photographs to the group at this address:
http://www.flickr.com/groups/kingsdownconservationgroup/
Any photographs of Kingsdown which might be of interest to other residents are encouraged- from architectural interest, seasonal images to community events.
I would very much like this to be added to the agenda if possible,
Please don’t hesitate to contact me for more information / etc.
