Inaugural General Meeting of the Ardross Community Woodland Company

Come along and become a voting member - it's open to the whole community of Ardross.

Take the time to familiarise yourself with the constitution - it takes about half an hour to read.

We would particularly like those of you who considered yourselves likely to be ‘active’ supporters to attend as, in keeping with the terms of the constitution, we must generate an initial membership of at least twenty.

To become a member, you will be required to pay an annual membership fee, currently set at the nominal amount of £1. Membership gives you the right to vote on matters arising, and the opportunity to become a director.
