Quick Trust Update

Dear members,
 
We thought we’d send a quick update on what the Board have achieved in the week or so since we last contacted you and ahead of a more substantial update next week (which will cover our first formal board meeting).  It’s quite a list:
 
We’ve agreed the Trust’s key officers with Arnie as Chair of the Trust Board, Tony as Secretary and Jayne Morris continuing as our voluntary Treasurer.
 
We’ve continued to update the Trust website, refreshed our social media presence on X (Twitter), Facebook and Instagram and posted our personal statements and photos so members can find out a bit more about us.
 
We’ve had further contact with the Football Supporters Association (FSA) who will be a valuable source of information and training for us including advising on the policies needed to set out the new governance framework for the Trust.
 
We’ve made good progress on the highest priority policies which we’ll consult you on in due course.
 
And most significantly we’ve started to build the productive partnership with Huw Jenkins that will be essential for the Trust to maintain its influence on issues affecting supporters.  To that end we’ve held our first face-to-face meeting with Huw where we discussed our shared (very high) ambition for Newport County AFC and how we will work together to achieve that.  And very soon you’ll see the outcome of the work we’ve been doing together with the Club on the various benefits that Trust members will receive and on the Fan Engagement Plan we have been developing together in line with EFL requirements.
 
We’re really keen to hear from you directly so please do get in touch by email, on social media or come and say ”hello” if you’re at Undy on Saturday.  And we should have a date for our first All-members meeting for you next week.

 
Best wishes
  
Arnie, Nic, Dug, Mike, Tony and Kev
