Register for this year’s AGM & Strategy Launch
Wednesday 9 September 2026, 10.30 am (online)
Calling all members!
Please come to Plunkett’s Annual General Meeting.
Alongside the formal AGM business and voting, this event marks the launch of our ambitious new five-year strategy.
Shaped by feedback from members earlier this year, the strategy sets the course for building a national movement that will make community ownership a mainstream solution for stronger rural communities.
The AGM is one of the most important moments in our calendar, giving members the opportunity to have their say, influence decision making and help steer the direction of the organisation.
Everyone is welcome – and members are eligible to vote!
The AGM Papers are available at the bottom of this page.
You will need to register below to get the Zoom link and voting code.
