Venue: Merseyside Transport Trust, Osprey Place, Burscough, L40 8TG
The Committee of the Friends of the 502 Group have called an Extraordinary General Meeting to discuss the future of the Group and the unit.
Topics for discussion will include:
- The need to increase the membership of the Group;
- Increasing the Group’s monthly income to cover our out-goings;
- How the Group can fund the restoration of the unit;
- Maintenance and operation of the unit once it is restored.
If you are unable to attend, but would like to contribute to the discussion – or if you feel there is another topic you wish to be discussed – please either email your comments etc. to chairman@class502.org.uk or post them to Friends of the 502 Group, PO Box 84, Liverpool L19 3RR by Saturday 7th April 2012.
To assist members in reaching the venue, the Group have arranged with the Merseyside Transport Trust for a preserved bus to pick up members at Ormskirk and Burscough Bridge railway stations (there is no Sunday service to Burscough Junction). Pick up times should be 10.45am at Ormskirk – to meet the 10.43am arrival – and 11.30am at Burscough Bridge – to allow for the 11.18am arrival from Southport and the 11.29am arrival from Wigan. If you are interested in using this service, please let me know as soon as possible (via email, phone or letter).
Please also remember that subscriptions are due soon (unless you pay by Standing Order). Anyone currently not a member is welcome to attend, providing that a membership form is completed and at least 12 months subscription payment is made before the meeting begins.
We look forward to seeing you on the 22nd April.
