By encouraging the wider community to become members, so that they get a
vote at the AGM.
The volunteer community is much larger than the membership of the
registered charity, and that body does indeed influence the activities
of WMUK.
But I am not happy with non members influencing change at the level of
Articles of Association. Non members become members who then get a vote
on these matters.
Wider engagement? How would I do it? Well communications strategy and
policy is always a good place to start.
