During the meeting, members reviewed the Annual Report and Financial Statements for the year ended 30 June 2025, and discussed key agenda items, including a special resolution to amend the Club’s Memorandum and Articles of Association concerning gold membership fees.

The proposed amendment was passed and allows the Board to determine membership fees for former Gold Members who reapply.

Commitment to growth and community

The meeting reaffirmed the Club’s ongoing commitment to serving Canberra’s Hellenic community through events, hospitality, and cultural engagement, while advancing major projects such as the Woden Village development – a future mixed-use precinct aimed at revitalising the local area.

With its new Board in place, the Hellenic Club of Canberra enters the 2025/26 financial year with renewed focus on sustainability, member engagement, and strengthening ties with the broader ACT community.
