  1. Sir Ralph Wedgwood liked richards's post in the thread Tornado.

    Unless they are shareholders and can get together to make a coordinated request (eg through an AGM or similar), the covenanters would appear to have very little say in how the organisation should be run or how its officers are selected.

  2. Sir Ralph Wedgwood liked 35B's post in the thread Tornado.

    And as has come up in those debates, it is an unusual organisation that can be run simultaneously in the interests of the charity and in the face of regular supporters withdrawing their confidence.

    Perfectly true. And that is what covenantors want. At the moment it is being run solely in the interests of the clique in charge… using OUR money.

    As @Lineisclear will undoubtedly tell you, the managers of the Trust must manage the Trust for its best interests and not the interests of the covenentors or members.

    Will you be willing to take up the challenge and help put such a structure in place? Or will you just sit on the sidelines to stir things up when those picking up the pieces don’t get it quite right?

    Im glad someone else noticed this. Most Bulleids seem to have these smaller numbers. Compared to the later style where the number fills the panel more pleasingly.
