Set up of the CIO

Members

Membership of the CIO is open but not limited to anyone who is over 16 years of age and living in
the Parish of Charfield who is interested in furthering its (the CIO’s) purposes, and who, by
applying for membership, has indicated their agreement to become a member and acceptance of
the duty of members.

Effectively the members role is to hold the Trustees to account for how they run the charity.
Members have powers to overturn Trustee decisions, and remove trustees if needed. Members
(not Trustees) have no day to day involvement in the running of the hall, they should receive
general updates from the Trustees and attend the AGM of the charity.
