AGM 2026
Please Note:
With apologies for the late notice, it has become necessary to change our venue for our AGM on Saturday, 7 November 2026.
We will now hold the AGM in the Main Hall at Merry Bells Village Hall, 89 High Street, Wheatley, OX33 1XP. It is just the other side of the A40 from our usual venue at Holton.
There is a car park behind the building which is accessed from Church Road, Wheatley. As we will be staying in the car park for more than 3 hours, please ensure that you register your vehicle using the terminal in the main hall where we will be holding the AGM. Click here to go to AGM page for map for car park.
All of the details previously advertised for the AGM programme are unchanged. The Hall will be open from 9 am with the Plant Sales starting at 10 am and the AGM starts at 11 am.
