The Swanage Railway Trust

- Communications

  The Swanage Railway Trust is committed to providing as much information as possible to Trust members, supporters and local residents alike. A wide variety of channels are used to disseminate this information according to interests. The chapters below provide some details of these channels.

Annual General Meeting

  The Annual General Meeting is the formal decision making body of the Trust and of the Company. Most SRT Members are entitled to attend and vote at the Trust AGM.

The results of the Council of Management election are also announced at the AGM and those elected are responsible for the day to day decision making between AGMs.

Mince Meetings

  A long established tradition of the Project, Mince Meetings can be called by members. These meetings provide an opportunity to discuss concerns with the Board and Council of Management.

There are typically a couple of Mince Meetings each year and these are conducted in a less formal atmosphere than the AGM but minutes are still taken. Proposals can be presented for a vote.

Council of Management 'Open Forum'

  The Council of Management usually meets in the last Saturday of the month at the Rectory Classroom, Swanage. The first fifteen minutes of these meetings is offered as an 'Open Forum' where any SRT member is invited to briefly outline any concerns or present suggestions for consideration.

Members wishing to be heard may simply turn up at 6pm.

 

Swanage Railway Magazine

  The SRM is normally published four times a year and circulated to all SRT members. It traditionally provides a mixture of news on views relating to the Project.

The editor of the SRM, welcomes contributions and letters from members and visitors alike.

Web Sites

  In addition to this Web site, the Project provides a further site targeted at our visitors. The Swanage Railway Web site provides a variety of information ranging from time tables to local accommodation, dining services to special events.

Discussion Forum

  The discussion forum is provided to enable members (and staff) to discuss Swanage Railway Project issues of interest or concern. It is open to all members of the SRT.

The discussion forum requires a registration form to be completed and this requires your current SRT Membership Number. Contributors are required to post using their real names. More...
