The 2024 Annual General Meeting took place on Wednesday 12 June as on online only meeting.
If you’re a member of the BMC then you are directly supporting and contributing to the work we do on behalf of our community of hill walkers, climbers, and mountaineers. You will also be benefitting from the support we provide across our services and activities, that will vary on your activities, specific interests, and roles that you may have volunteering across our work areas.
As a member you also have a say on the things we do and we want to make sure you can do that and know that each member will have different perspectives and different means by which they want to contribute, the AGM is one.

CLUBS AND VOLUNTEERING
The BMC also has local area groups, volunteers who represent the BMC in their local areas and who meet quarterly to discuss issues local to them as well as wider national issues.
You may already be a member of a club but if not, this is a great way to meet like-minded people local to you while at the same time developing your skills and knowledge. You might want to look at setting up your own group or club, something which the BMC can support you with. Click here to find a club.
