Our 2024 Annual General Meeting
The Wellington Multiple Sclerosis Society held its 60th Annual General Meeting (AGM) at 10am on Saturday 18 May at Upper Hutt Cossie Club.
Around 20 members attended to learn about the Committee’s progress during 2023 and to complete important tasks such as review the minutes from the previous AGM, ratify the accounts, confirm the reappointment of existing Committee Members and appoint new ones.
The three existing Committee Members, Steve McCloskey, Ross Judge (Treasurer) and Alarna Sharratt were all reappointed and Steve McCloskey was appointed as the new President. Two new Committee Members were also appointed: Paul Gruschow and Nicky Louis.
This year’s Andy Woodside Memorial Award was made to Rachelle McIntyre, a Wairarapa client who has realised a long-standing dream of becoming a published author by writing a children's book, 'Mrs M'. You can read more about Rachelle here.
Our wonderful Patron Anne La Flamme again came to tell WMS members about the amazing work she, her team and other researchers are doing in the fight against MS.
