Council

The activities of the Society are coordinated by an elected Council which oversees the day-to-day running of the Society, including the booking of speakers and field trips, the dissemination of Society news and information through the monthly bulletin, the Proceedings and the Avon Bird Report, the running of the library and the administration of grants.

Council members are also responsible for managing the Society funds under close scrutiny of the Charity Commission. Annual subscriptions are the Societies biggest income and Council take extreme care that this money is spent wisely to benefit the Society and its members. All Council members are volunteers and give their time for free.
