Subs

All regular members are expected to pay subs to the Loughborough Orchestra. The subs cover the cost of the Burleigh Hall hire for our weekly rehearsals. Subs can be paid annually (£55), over 3 terms (£22 per term) or by direct debit (£7.50 per month for 8 months) and there is a 50% reduction offered to full time students. The treasurer David Bristow has the details. 

If you are new to the orchestra, then we won't charge you for your first few evenings :-)

Since the 2006 AGM we have adopted a constitution and now have charitable status. This  means we are able to claim tax back on fees paid by UK tax payers which has helped us to keep our subs fixed this year. 



Committee Governance

The orchestra is a democratically run club. Each year a committee is elected at the annual general meeting (AGM) , which is open to all members. The committee is made up of officers with responsibilities for administration, publicity, finance, etc, and representatives from each of the main sections of the orchestra. The Leader and Conductor are also members of the committee.

Following the elections at the AGM in October 2009, the current list of committee members is as below: -

   Name  Role  
   Iain Cummings  Chairman  
   Gillian Butcher  Secretary  
   Trevor Lax  Conductor  
   Zosia Cocker  Leader  
   David Bristow  Treasurer  
   Geoffrey Carter  Librarian  
  Richard Mee  Concert Manager  
   Gillian Butcher  Strings Representative  
   Alison Parrott  Wind Representative
