Hiya,
Another meet being held by BRISA (separate to another meet on this board)
From Strung Out
Apologies for the lack of updates on this recently - I've been on holiday so a lot of stuff has been going on in the background, rather than in public. As I'm sure everyone understands, to get the infrastructure of the association finalised, there's been a lot of dull admin that's had to be done before any formal launch.
There is going to be a meeting of people who have been involved or who want to get involved this weekend, either the 7th or 8th - please do let us know on this thread if you'd like to come, because although lots of the admin behind the set up has had to be done by a small group of people, achieving change at the club will require the buy-in of as much of the fanbase as possible, as well as the support of the fans in keeping the association going.
For those of you wondering exactly what has had to be done, the following has been achieved:
Website created
Social media presences established
Permission gained from the ICO to hold personal information
Registered addresses established
A draft set of campaigns written (to be ratified by members at a future date)
A formal constitution has been created
Links with local media to promote BRISA
Clearly people will have input on what should or shouldn't have been done, so if you want to voice any concerns, feel free to do so in this thread or by coming to the meeting this weekend.
We were hoping to launch a little earlier than this, but we've felt that it was far more important to do it properly than to launch an association with no aims, no strategy and no structure. Obviously the other meeting happening on the 10th has meant that we've wanted to announce things on here and reassure people that preparations are ongoing.
