  Welcome to the Society's Annual General Meeting 2021!

  All members are encouraged to attend and have their say. It's a chance for us to get together and give the  Society an annual check-up! Once again, due to the current guidelines and recommendations from the Swedish Government, we will be hosting the AGM digitally through Zoom. This will take place on the 6th May at 19:00. 

  At the AGM, the board will report back to the members on what has been done during the previous year and elections for new board members will be held.

  This year, re-elections for the positions of vice-chairperson, treasurer, secretary and one ordinary board member will be held. In addition, elections for 2 additional board members and 3-4 deputies will also be held. Positions are 1 or 2 year positions with the exception of deputies, which are 1-year posts.

  If you wish to submit a motion to be voted on at the AGM, please email info@swedishirish.com no later than 22nd April.

  Documents relevant to the AGM will be hosted at the following link. The link will only work for members who are logged in. An update will be sent out when they are updated and can be downloaded. Note that the page will not have any documents until it is updated prior to the event.

  Digital Requirements

  It would be good to familiarise yourself with Zoom prior to the event. A link will be sent to your registered email prior to the event which will be your way into the meeting. You will be placed in a meeting room where you may need to verify your identity. Please have your email address and/or membership number ready. 

  It should also be noted for voting purposes 1 vote per 1 device. Therefore, if you are sharing a device, you will only get 1 vote and will need to either use a laptop and a phone if 2 members reside in the same premises. 

  All voting will be carried out on Zoom, whereby each device will anonymously vote on a poll that will appear on your screen at the appropriate time.

  Welcome to the Swedish Irish Society's Outdoor Spring Book Swap! The event is at Futuraskolan in Stockholm on Saturday the 15th of May and it starts at 11am.

  Take a book, leave a book, or just come and say hi. There will be a food truck and refreshments on offer. The event is a drop-in, so you can come and go as you please. This means that you do not have to attend the full duration of the event.

  To make sure that we have enough refreshments, we would like to know if you are coming. So please RSVP if you are thinking of popping along, even for a little bit.

  We will be taking all the necessary precautions regarding keeping distance and wearing masks, so we expect you to do the same. Depending on the guidelines from the Swedish Ministry of Health (Folkhälsomyndigheten), we may have to cancel the event with short notice. 

  Address: Futuraskolan International, Erik Dahlbergsgatan 58-62, 115 57 Stockholm

  Directions for how to get there via public transport: Take the red tunnelbana line to Gärdet (towards Ropsten), go out via the Brantingsgatan exit. Follow Brantingsgatan to the left (northwards). Continue north (to the right) when you get to the big road (Erik Dahlbergsgatan) Futuraskolan will be on the corner at the crossroads.
