Small formal AGM on 8th June. There will be an event later in the year.

Meeting papers will be posted on the website shortly.
We are actively looking for new committee members. Please get in touch if you are interested in joining us. We are a friendly informal committee. Since our last AGM at the end of April 2025, we have organised and hosted a talk by Peter Freeman the Chair of the Cambridge Growth Company at Great St Mary’s. The event which was live streamed and recorded, was very well attended (over 400 registered). We were also on the panel, along with the Leader of South Cambs DC, and reps from MHCLG and the Cambridge Growth Company, at Cambridge Past Present and Future’s recent event: “Who Will Decide the Future of Cambridge.
* All FeCRA members are welcome to attend. Please contact the FeCRA Secretary secretary@fecra.org.uk if you are planning to do so. It is a small formal AGM this year with the usual format of Chair and Treasurers Reports and minutes of last year’s AGM and we need to know how many we need to cater for.
Best wishes,
Wendy
