Minutes for GM

Mukund can’t do it (home for driving test), Avrah volunteered to do it instead.

Meeting with domestic bursar next week

Callum meeting next week, happy to raise any issues.

Garden Party struggling with funding, Amanda strongly against JCR funding Garden Party as this will create precedent to fund Garden Party and Ball year after year. Adam considering fundraising via the bar to raise money for Garden Party.

Post-COVID, JCR had high reserves, so for a few years spent money subsidising these events, College decided this would be the year we stop doing that (or unsustainable as reserves are falling).
