Please find attached the programme and booking form for the WSSEN annual event 'Social enterprise: businesses making a difference', which will take place on the 23rd February 2012 at Billingshurst Village Hall. You can download these documents from www.wssen.org.uk. This is a free event with limited places to be allocated on a first come first served basis, so book early to avoid disappointment.
Also please note that the First General Meeting of Sussex Town and Rural Transport CIC (ST@RT) will take place after the WSSEN event starting at 15.30 hours for about 45 minutes.
ST@RT has been formed to co-ordinate and help in transportation issues of any charitable organisations or 'not for profit' groups involved in, or with a transport need, in West Sussex. The governance of ST@RT has been arranged so that it can act as an agent for members and obtain business through tendering for all its members as well as providing members with access to a wide range of policy and CT related documentation. ST@RT is constituted as a CIC and has an asset lock to ensure that any furpluses from trading or funds left over after cessation of trading must be reinvested in community transport in West Sussex.
ST@RT founder members have developed the charity to this stage and now need to hold its First General Meeting. The Founder Directors will resign at the meeting and new Director/Trustees elected. Charities will be able to become members (£10 p.a. fee)
