Attending the AGM gives you the opportunity to meet the Board, hear about the Society’s performance, ask questions and exercise your voting rights in person.
You will also be able to hear from the Port Vale Foundation, one of the many community organisations with whom we work, which operates across Stoke-on-Trent and North Staffordshire.
If you qualify to vote, you will receive your AGM voting pack which has all the information you will need to vote. You do not need to attend the AGM in person to be able to vote. In fact, most members tend to vote online or by post before the AGM.
Online votes are captured on a secure voting portal administered by Howsons Electoral Services who are our independent scrutineers for the AGM. You will require your user ID and password which can be found on the Proxy Voting Form enclosed in your mailing pack. If you have received your AGM pack by email, the link provided will take you straight through to the online voting portal. Alternatively you can click below to vote.

For every online vote received, we will donate 50 pence and for every vote received by post, we will donate 25 pence to this year’s nominated charity, Your Emotional Support Service, which supports adults and children with their mental health and wellbeing.
Many of our members have opted to receive their AGM pack by email and we would like to thank them for helping the environment. In recognition of this, we will pass the savings in our postage costs to this year’s nominated charity.
