Annual General Meeting

This year’s meeting is being held in Kirkcaldy at the Adam Smith Theatre. We are also able to share the meeting as a virtual experience for those who would prefer this option. We hope that this will enable as many members as possible to participate and engage with the AGM.

See the Adam Smith Theatre website for information on finding and accessing the venue.

As ever, there will be a chance to hear about the work of the Trust over the past year and your opportunity to ask questions. There’s other important business to cover too – an election is being held for two positions on the Board, along with other appointments, electing our auditors and looking at prices for our Ordinary Membership subscription. We will also be sharing a presentation on the Lorimers and our Fife collections and properties.

As with previous years’ meetings, you can still vote in the Trustee election or appoint a proxy if you cannot attend the meeting. You can do this online, or complete and return the Voting Form that is included in the envelope with your summer edition of the magazine.

To help us plan for the AGM, we are asking members to register their interest in attending either in person or virtually, ahead of the meeting. This will allow us time to issue the joining instructions for those attending virtually. Members attending the AGM may vote in the Trustee election in advance of the meeting or on the day itself.

Registration and Online Voting Return

You can register to attend in person or virtually and vote online in the Trustee election.

You can vote quickly and easily online by 5pm on Tuesday 17 September 2024.

Access the secure independent voting site and register

You will need your Unique Security Code (USC) that is printed on the AGM Notice and Voting Form that came with your summer magazine.

If you have misplaced the USC or the Voting Form, please contact the independent scrutineers UK Engage via email at nts@uk-engage.org or call 0345 209 3770.

If you are returning the paper voting form, it must be completed and returned to the address provided no later than Friday 13 September 2024.

If you have pre-registered to attend the AGM virtually, you will receive an email from UK Engage around 48 hours prior to the meeting with the joining instructions. Please contact UK Engage on the contact details above if you have not received your email by 9am on Thursday 19 September.

We encourage members to submit questions in advance to the Secretary (by emailing trustsecretary@nts.org.uk) by 9am on Thursday 19 September 2024. Submitting questions in advance will ensure that there is sufficient time for your question to be answered.
