AGM on 3rd Nov at 6pm in The Plough Auditorium (doors open to auditorium 6pm, and AGM starts 6.15).

We are pleased to invite all our shareholders to attend our second AGM.

The Plough holds 235 people and we have around 700 shareholders, so we are reaching out to ask all our shareholders, if they intend to attend the AGM, to book a ticket using the link. Booking will help us ensure we meet our quorate - which is 10% of shareholders.

Seats are restricted to shareholders only and one seat is allocated to each shareholder email address. Each shareholder has one vote only.
PLEASE CLICK AND BOOK EACH SEAT SEPARATELY IF YOUR EMAIL WAS USED TO PURCHASE MORE THAN ONE SHAREHOLDING.

If you are unsure then contact [email protected] and Rachel will check for you.
Book a seat at 2026 AGM

If you do not manage to secure a seat or are unable to attend in person then you can still take part in voting in the Board. We are planning on live-streaming the AGM. This means you can watch it on-line live but will not be able to ask questions. If you have a specific question you can send it in to be considered on the night.
We will leave the meeting officially open for a week so you will be able to vote. Nominees statements will be on our website.

2026 AGM draft agenda

1) Directors Speech
2) Project Update - including
a) Presentation of meanwhile-Use objectives and activities - and call out for volunteers and input.
b) Presentation of full-refurbishment current design drawings.
3) Receiving of accounts 25/26
4) Voting on Resolutions:
a) Voting to nominate auditor or to accept non-audited accounts for 25/26
5) Voting in of Board
a) One third of the current Board must stand down and may stand for re-election. All nominations for director roles will complete a statement which will be shared on our website, at the Globe prior to the event, and read by Chair or nominee at AGM.

If you wish to be considered to stand as a director/trustee on the Board
then download a nomination pack here. Once you have read the pack we ask you get in touch and we can discuss the form and put you in touch with one of our current Board members so you can get an understanding of the role and commitment needed.
We will need your submission back by 5pm 21st Oct. If you can’t meet this deadline and are interested in joining the Board, submit your form when you can - as we can always co-opt new directors at future Board meetings.

If you feel joining the Board is too time consuming but you still want to be actively involved then you may want to put your name forward to take part in our meanwhile planning sessions. These will be facilitated events bringing people together to plan how we will use the space from next May, when we hope to be able to use the ground-floor area. Email [email protected] to register your interest.

Thank you again for supporting The Globe!

We are delighted to announce that Jenkinson Potts start on site today! They are tasked with making the building watertight and safe from further deterioration, so we can hope to have meanwhile use of part of the building from May 2027. This obviously depends on some of the opening up work they will be doing and what we find - but we’ve carried out all the reports we can to date to cost all the work needed. We all know old buildings have a habit of hiding things from view - so keeping our fingers crossed! We will also have an archaeologist on site, ensuring that anything uncovered is recorded and notified to the listed building team.
