There's no particular reason for sending it to

the primary way the chapter communicates with the UK community.
I disagree. The membership of Wikimedia UK has a right to dedicated
channel of communication (the normal choice being email, but SMS,
telephone and letter should be on offer). It exists, and has been used
in the past to announce things such the result of the AGM voting.
Wikimedia UK (a registered charity and a company limited by guarantee)
can and should communicate with the UK community (no legal status) and
with the membership (a group who have a legal status, and a set of
duties e.g. elect the Board of Trustees). Since this thread is about a
Trustee, then I think you will find members wanting to be kept up to
date, without the need to read this list.
