The Anglia Region Council represents
ALL
Caravan Club members resident in the
designated Counties of the region; Norfolk,
Suffolk, Cambridgeshire and Essex.
A brief history
At a meeting of the Club Council (January
1995) a proposal to restructure the
Council was put forward. It was decided
that the Country would be divided into 10
Regions, each with a Regional Council. These
Regional Councils would elect delegates to
sit on a restructured Club Council. This
Regional structure began on 1 January 1996.
Aims of the Anglia Region Council
In accordance with the Constitution, the
aims of the Anglia Region Council are:
Clearly the Anglia Region Council has a very
broad brief which covers a wide range of
topics. The Regional Council is made up of
extremely knowledgeable members. Usually
matters or questions raised can be resolved
at a regional level. It is sometimes
necessary to seek advice from the Executive
Committee or the staff at East Grinstead.
This means that every member of the Club can
use a Regional Council to access all levels
of the Club management structure.
Anglia Region Council Activities
Since it began, the Council has met
regularly to discuss and where necessary,
resolve matters of interest to regional
members. These meetings are held in the
week prior to each Club Council meeting.
This enables items to be raised by the three
Regional Delegates at the Club Council
meeting. Other Regional Council meetings
are held as required.
Each year an AGM is held on the last
Saturday in November to elect the Officers,
approve the accounts and to receive reports
on the Council’s activities. The AGM is
open to all members of the Club (as
described previously). The call notice
usually appears in the July issue of the
magazine. All members are welcome and
caravan parking is arranged near the meeting
room. The venue changes each year and
rotates around the Region.
Other events that have been held include an
Open Forum, Members Question Time and Meet
the members events at Dealers and on Club
sites. Social events with associated
rallies, dinner dance, Thames River trips
and visits to the Houses of Parliament,
encourage members to come along and provide
opportunities to discuss the future of their
Club and the shape and ways ahead.
All members within the Region can attend any
event organised by the Regional Council.
As a member of the Caravan Club you are part
of a very large and successful
organisation. The Club can help you to get
more use and enjoyment out of your caravan.
If you as a member, have a point to make, a
query, a suggestion, a comment or a
criticism, the first point of contact could
well be the Anglia Region Council. All you
have to do is write to the Secretary whose
address appears in the members handbook or
email the address on this web site.
Maybe you have a comment on a Certified
Location (C.L.), or a Club site, the Club
collection, the Magazine etc. If you have
something to say please contact the Regional
Council.
