Griff Rhys Jones confirmed to attend Civic Voice AGM

Civic Voice is delighted to announce that our President, Griff Rhys Jones OBE, will be attending the upcoming Annual General Meeting in London.

The AGM, a key event in the Civic Voice calendar, will take place on 7th December and will bring together supporters, civic societies, and Civic Voice Trustees to review the year, discuss priorities, and plan for the future of the civic movement in 2025.

As a long-standing advocate for civic societies and the promotion of local heritage, Griff Rhys Jones has been instrumental in championing the civic movement’s mission to promote pride in place ever since our first event in 2010. His attendance reinforces his commitment to supporting Civic Voice and civic societies in shaping the places where we live, work, and connect.

Griff Rhys Jones OBE said:
"I am really pleased that the AGM is in London this year, and even more pleased that my schedule allows me to be in London at the same time so I can get along to this year’s Civic Voice AGM. Civic societies are at the heart of improving places, and I look forward to hearing from members about their work and the challenges and opportunities they face. It is a privilege to support this movement and the fantastic work happening across the country to strengthen our communities."

The AGM will feature discussions on Civic Voice’s strategic priorities, updates on key campaigns, and opportunities for members to share their views. Griff’s involvement promises to provide inspiration and insight as Civic Voice continues to advocate for greater community engagement and a better future for our towns and cities.

Martin Hamilton, Chair of Civic Voice, said:
"Having Griff with us at the Civic Voice events is always a highlight. His passion for the civic movement is infectious, and we know his presence will energise and encourage our members as we come together to shape the next chapter of Civic Voice."

Civic Voice members are encouraged to register early to secure their place and be part of this important event.
