Second Year for Our President E-mail

Paul Dunn has been re-elected as Chamber President at our AGM on Tuesday 6th July.  Paul now begins his second year of heading up our local business group, working with a committee of local business people.

Over thirty people from a variety of different local businesses enjoyed an evening of informal networking and socialising at our Cheese & Wine evening at Delicias wine bar, during which the short AGM took place.  In addition to agreeing the position of President, Suzanne Gore from Only Mortgages was confirmed as new Vice-President, and Hazel Newson from Dandelion gift shop agreed to continue her current role as Treasurer. 

Paul Dunn gave an overview of our past year’s activities at the evening, including working with the Young Chamber at Wootton Bassett School, hosting the first in a series of retailers’ meetings, working with the town council on the Christmas Lights & Shopping Evening, and organising a series of successful events.  Current projects and future plans were also discussed, such as our new scheme to promote local trading, a town webcam, and plans to prepare for the closure of RAF Lyneham.

Said Paul, “We have a good team of local business people with a varied range of skills and experience on our Chamber committee, putting us in an excellent position to continue promoting and encouraging the interests of our members.  We hope that the following year will continue to bring fresh ideas and renewed enthusiasm for projects and plans to benefit the local business community as a whole.”

Paul is the originator and co-founder of web video production company BizView.tv, the winning business in our Chamber's New Business competition in 2008.
