The evening began with a welcome and the Chair’s Report, delivered by Kelly Ferns, who reflected on the achievements of the past year. Kelly introduced our newly published Annual Report, which showcases the incredible work carried out across our organisation, from housing improvements to community engagement.

Following this, Kevin Booth from Alexander Sloan presented our Annual Accounts, providing an overview of our financial performance.

The meeting continued with the election of our Board, followed by a heartfelt vote of thanks.
We then heard from Paul Findlay from Financial Fitness, who shared insights into their impactful work supporting the Inverclyde community for over 25 years.

marked her final one as organiser, and we were delighted to welcome her family to celebrate her legacy and dedication to Cloch over the years.
