The AGMs are expected to last about an hour, followed by a drink on the gundeck at 4.20/4.30pm latest, leaving time to get home for the EURO 24 Qtr. finals at 5pm.

Unfortunately, the RMYC are unable to open the bar on this occasion due to staffing.

We look forward to seeing as many of you as possible.

Please join us on Tuesday 28th May from 10am-12pm at the RMYC for a coffee in the upstairs committee room. 

The Sandbanks Peninsula Neighbourhood Plan is in its final stages and needs our community support at a referendum to be held in July.

We would like to meet you all to explain the next steps and to recruit new members who live or work in the Plan's area.

You do not have to be a member of SCG to join, though almost all members support both, as we work together on specific projects.

If you are unable to make it but are interested to join the Forum or to find out how you can support the Sandbanks Peninsula Neighbourhood Plan, we would love to hear from you at planning.snf@gmail.com
