Notice of AGM We will hold our AGM on Thursday, 15th October at 2pm.We will not be able to hold it in person due to Covid-19 so this will be conducted online by Zoom. See the September Newsletter page2 (paper version only), or our Facebook page, for the Zoom ID and passcode. We would usually table copies our Annual Reports. However, as we will be meeting virtually we can issue these prior to the AGM instead. Please email our admin if you would like copies sent to you before hand. admin@dgmefm.org.uk          We wish to  change some of the wording in the Finance section our Constitution,but this would need approval at the AGM.We propose to: Amend the wording in the Finance section (para 6e) of our Constitution from ‘Income and Expenditure Account’ to ‘Receipts and Payment Account’. There would be no change to our current practice as we already keep Receipts and Payment accounts compliant with the 2006 Regulations, but would update the Constitution as advised by the Charity Regulator (OSCR).You can find a link to the Constitution on our website page https://dgmefm.org.uk/about-us-membership

We would also like to invite YOU ! to join the committee. You can be involved as little or as much as you would feel comfortable with. It would be great to have help with projects or even just proof reading before we post items.

 
If you want to see more look back through our Facebook page for all the others that Mary has posted.
 
I’ve just had a quick look on the internet and there are loads of sites with free jigsaws to complete.
This site was just one of many available:
 
Also this month Paul and June had a go at catching moths. It turned out to be a very successful night with many caught and identified. The moth trap works by attracting the moths to a light which in turn guides them down a funnel and they hide amongst egg boxes within the trap.

DATES FOR YOUR DIARY:
 
Meetings – All physical meetings are cancelled until further notice due to Covid-19. In the meantime we are holding virtual meetings to members of the Network and our Facebook page every Thursday for about an hour from 2pm using Zoom Meetings. Zoom is available by app for smart phones and tablets, and in your browser or by app on PCs, laptops and Macs. We find it works best on PC, laptop or Mac, followed by tablet, as there’s more screen space to see all participants. The Zoom link and password is available on our Facebook page or you can get it by emailing admin@dgmefm.org.uk

I am pleasantly surprised at how the discussion flows. It is good to see fellow Network members joining in and taking support from them.
