Minutes & Actions from last meeting

  • No issues raised
  • Actions regarding the physical space are on hold due to Covid-19

EMF Update

  • EMF is cancelled unfortunately
  • It'll be running again in 2022
  • There will be a cocktail robot event prior to that so work on EMF will continue when normality returns

Team updates

Laser

  • A new tube has been fitted!
  • The laser has seen a very small number of users over the last month
  • ^ Including for creating facemasks for the NHS!
  • The laser did ~8785 hours of cutting! Amazing

Membership

  • As of 01/04/2020 719 members
  • We are anticipating an attrition over the coming weeks due to the lack of new members coming in
  • We cant know the full impact of members looking at & adjusting their finances due to Covid-19 for a while.
  • Currently we aren't recruiting due to social distancing

Finances

The blue bars are showing our flywheel regular income red bars include fluctuating income. i.e. workshops, snackspace, donations we expect this to fall due to covid-19 This graph shows our income plotted against bank balance We have a good sized amount of cash in the bank currently We expect like many organizations we are going to have a period of financial uncertainty over the next 6 months Gareth asks if there is any way we can ask members to preferably reduce their payments rather than end their membership

Note Note: I didn't minute which graph lines up to which comment. Hopefully you can work it out! (Danspencer101 (talk))

  • We (the trustees) have decided to continue with the election process as normal
