You attended a CUOSC Board meeting last night , anything to report?
Is the old Trust website still in operation or has a new one been set up.
Minutes should hopefully be available fairly soon - will happily answer any queries on these. Board Member Nigel Davidson is currently putting in a lot of time and effort scoping defined roles and responsibilities for board members, and volunteers. At present there are 11/12 'Board Members' with no specific responsibility, and aren't held accountable. He's a relatively new Board Member and is really pushing for change within - you may have heard him speaking on Radio Cumbria in recent months re: the re-branding.
The existing website is still in operation. There's been a slight delay on this because CUSAT own the domain
www.cuosc.co.uk. The existing website is still under the domain united-trust, which I hope will change very soon. The look/feel of the site is currently still the same, albeit references to United Trust and the old logo have now been changed. I've suggested a fresh new website, and I hope that materialises.
Re: the investment. There was nothing mentioned that hasn't already been said on here this morning. Lord Clark is the 3rd person, and mentioned on Radio Cumbria that he is aware of the nationality of the agent/billionaire. No further questions have been asked; however a few of the CUOSC board members re-iterated the need to be banging on doors (so to speak) on a daily basis.
I didn't get home from the meeting until about 10pm last night (6:30pm start) and don't have notes on me in work today but I'll have a scan over them tonight.
