February 7th - TRANSPORT 17 LTD are currently reviewing the governance of Transport 17. Part of this is the plan to move from a Co-operative and Community Benefit Society structure to a Charitable Incorporated Organisation structure, thereby changing its legal status. A formal meeting to agree and implement this change will be held in March this year.
The management committee are anxious to trace as many original shareholders as is possible, particularly those who may have lost contact with T17 over the years. Perhaps you know of friends, colleagues, or elderly relatives who may have been an original shareholder in the 1980's. If so, please can you ask them to contact T17 either by email or telephone [details below] so that they can update their records and obtain views on their proposals.
If you know of an original shareholder who is unable to contact them for whatever reason, please help them to update their records by contacting them yourself.

Telephone: 0114 236 2962

February 3rd - A couple of Thursday path clearers were out again yesterday, putting a wooden bench in at the top of the steps down to the railway with ranger Tom and his Friday band of volunteers. They also removed more holly and broken material from the surrounding area to improve the view and ensure no one gets a clunk on the head. The bench is there for everyone to enjoy!
