No, unfortunately we are nowhere back to normal. This is why our Annual General Meeting was held online for the first time in the history of ELTAS!

Despite the unusual location, the meeting went on as normal.

After a warm welcome from our leaving chair Katrin, the chair of the AGM was elected. Thank you, Michelle Hunter, for doing a fabulous job.

After the official report of our treasurer Ingrid, we heard a few reports from committee members. Yes, it was a strange year, to say the least, but we actually got a lot of things accomplished!  Both the Tech Group and the ELTAS Touch Base meetings were introduced in 2020.
We had a selection of engaging workshops throughout the year and this helped to create a sense of community, even though we couldn’t meet in person.
In addition, our website has a few new features and functions and we’ve upped the game with our social media accounts, regularly posting content.

The 2020 committee was officially released, and the 2021 committee duly elected, with a slight shift in roles and committee members.
Katrin stepped down as our chair, and Kiara left her position as secretary. Thank you, Katrin and Kiara for doing a great job over the years! We’re gonna miss you when you’re gone… 😉

Our new chair is Andy VN, and we have a new committee member, Vera, who will take over as secretary.

We may not know what the future may bring, but I am sure we are well prepared and committed to bringing ongoing value to our members, regardless of the circumstances.
