The Manchester and District Walkers AGM will take place Saturday 15 November 2025 at The Ape and Apple, John Dalton Street Manchester. Entry will be from 3pm, with proceedings starting at 4pm.

It's almost that time of year when the current committee step down from their roles and nominations open for next year, with elections to take place at the AGM. There are nine positions on the MAD Committee:

The roles certainly warrant commitment and time. However, being on the committee is extremely rewarding and a great opportunity to work as a team, to ensure the group runs smoothly and most importantly, to give something back. There is also the possibility to share roles. This has proved successful over the past couple of years.

If you have an interest in standing for election to the MAD Committee, please make sure you have a chat with the person(s) who currently hold(s) the role, so as to fully understand what the positions involve in terms of duties, responsibilities, meetings and reports. Some information in the form of role descriptions can also be found here https://www.madwalkers.org.uk/about-us/committee/

To stand for committee, you must nominate yourself. Nominations should be in the form of an email along with a manifesto (a brief summary of why you are standing for the role). Nominations shall be open from 27th October 2025 and close midnight 10th November 2025. These should be sent to both secretary@madwalkers.org.uk and chair@madwalkers.org.uk

The event is free of charge (Membership is required to attend). There will be a small buffet (meat and vegetarian options, vegan option tbc) provided shortly before proceedings start. As part of the AGM there shall also be a number of prize raffles.
