Due to Covid-19, we weren't able to hold our Annual General Meeting in the normal way. So this year, our board met virtually to conduct the Meeting. You can find out the results below.
The Meeting was held at 3pm on Wednesday 30 September.
Thank you to all of our members who voted in our 2020 AGM either by post or online.
- During the formal proceedings 13 Ordinary Resolutions and one Special Resolution were passed.
- The Meeting was held virtually with the board in attendance, as well as two LV= employees who hold a member qualifying product and are entitled to vote in the AGM. This was so that we could achieve a quorum for the Meeting.
- We received 50,249 proxy votes.
- Our total turnout of votes was 5.20%, of which 24% were conducted online.
- The results for each of the Resolutions are shown in the table below.
We're delighted that, because of our members' votes, Maggie's will receive a £20,000 donation to go towards the incredible work that they do.
