Hunts Forum AGM 2022 – People and Places

It is that time for our Annual General Meeting. This year it will be in person at the Civic Suite at Pathfinder House, Huntingdon. Here we will have a range of member organisations with stalls promoting what they do and allowing you to network with light refreshments.

Cllr Sarah Conboy will be opening the event by talking through Huntingdonshire District Council Place agenda and updating on changes and developments. Next, we will hold the official business of the AGM, where we ask members to vote on several matters. This will be followed by the awarding of our new Good to Go: Good Governance Mark to those who have achieved this in the past two years.

We will close the event with Sarah Hughes, who will join us to discuss the impact of the changing health agenda on the communities around us.

We are very excited to hold this event in person and hope you can join us in celebrating the people and places which make up Huntingdonshire.
