We’re looking forward to our AGM on Tuesday 24 September, 7.30pm at Southlands Methodist Church. All are welcome to attend (please note: only YSCP members can vote on the items put forward).

YSCP’s current Chair, Livy Potter, will be stepping down from the Committee at our AGM, while Natalie Roe has agreed to take up the baton of Chair. Natalie joined the Committee in 2023 and has brought great energy and lots of exciting ideas to the group since then. She has written and directed for our Direct Approach project, showcased her excellent organisational skills as stage manager for our production of ‘Separate Tables’, and is currently flexing her directing muscles once more for our upcoming production of ‘Picasso at the Lapin Agile’. Our long-serving Secretary, Catherine Edge, will be temporary Chair until Natalie’s directing responsibilities have finished at the end of this year. We hope you’ll join us in supporting Natalie and Catherine at our AGM and beyond.

Also stepping down from the Committee at our AGM is Matt Pattison and Frances Adams. Matt has spearheaded Direct Approach for a number of years, ensuring the project has gone from strength to strength. Frances has been a diligent Membership Secretary since 2022, ensuring our current members are kept up to date with everything we do, handling membership renewals, and welcoming new members to the group. We’d like to thank Matt and Frances for all their hard work and look forward to welcoming new faces to the YSCP Committee at our AGM. We hope you are too – see you there!
