The 2018 AGM was held on 5th June at the Arch Hotel, Great Cumberland Place.  The 2017 accounts closed with a surplus of £ 71,793.  The high cost of removing the remaining asbestos of the building exceeded the reserves of our provision for major expenditure, but it was necessary to perform this work whilst the landings were being refurbished, to avoid the need for any future works related to asbestos removal.  The issue of asbestos containment and removal is now behind us.  The fund will be rebuilt with the surplus of the coming two years.
