Today’s EGM voted by a very large majority to wind up the Mercia Cinema Society, as proposed and accepted at the December AGM.

Kate Taylor paid tribute to all of the current and former members who had played an active role in the society over the last thirty years.  Particular thanks were given to former Membership Officer and Treasurer Charles Morris who had generously made the Cottage Road Cinema available to us for the meeting.

The Committee will now work towards an orderly winding up of the Society accounts and assets in line with the constitution.

No further Memberships will now be accepted and Members who pay by Standing Order are requested to cancel such arrangements in the interim period whilst the bank account is still active to avoid unnecessary administration.
