Update from the Patrons Group
Many thanks to all BBC members who recently attended the breakfast meeting in the Brockville Bar, and listened to a short talk about the Patrons’ Group.
The Patrons’ Group is a group of Falkirk fans dedicated to rebuilding a successful, sustainable football club by promoting fan ownership and democratic governance. This manifests in three key ways:
- Investing in the club via share purchase, with the goal of holding at least 26% of total shares in order to safeguard the club.
- Supporting Falkirk Supporters’ Society to ensure that small shareholders always have a strong say in how the club is run.
- Participating, via elected representatives, on the FFC Board to ensure a culture of collaboration, consensus and transparency.
They currently have 25 members, collectively holding around 1 million shares in Falkirk FC, and will shortly be making further investment. They are open to and are actively looking for new members.
All members of Bairns Business Club are therefore invited to express an interest (without obligation) in finding out more about the Patrons’ Group. To do so you can simply email Kenny Jamieson on kenny@dreamweavers.org.uk, who can answer any questions you may have.
Many thanks for your consideration.
