NUMBER 33 AUGUST 2009
In My Opinion
During the month I was stuck down with what
I believe was swine flu. I had all the symptoms
and for a period of 4-5 days was not really able
to do any work. This ‘time off’ gave me time to
nside
think and re-enforced the reality of the pivotal
role played by a few in the magazine. We are

a small concern that barely covers cost of

production but I believe, in the main, it is
appreciated by the community of Eltham

the magazine is important.
Culture - Music, drama & comedy 15
It is not a good thing that the magazine is dependant on one or two. There

advertising to keep the magazine viable. This is one reason we have Young Eltham 29
pushed for subscribers because with a strong subscriber base the future of

the magazine is assured.

as a Community Interest Company will be brought forward.
Community Interest Companies (CICS) are limited companies, with special
additional features, created for the use of people who want to conduct a

business or other activity for community benefit, and not purely for private
advantage. This is achieved by a "community interest test" and "asset lock",

which ensures that the CIC is established for community purposes and
the assets and profits are dedicated to these purposes. Registration of a

company as a CIC has to be approved by the Regulator who also has a

Conversion to a CIC will allow the community to benefit from and take a Summer Festival 10
directional role in the magazine and will hopefully bring with it a team or

structure that will ensure that the CIC is able to perform its roles and an
