FOTA ENGLAND by Leslie Price

A meeting was held at 50 Gloucester Place on 5 November 2013 of persons interested in setting up in this country The Friends of Theosophical Archives . (A similar initiative is planned for USA). Present were Lynda Harris Janet Lee, Leslie Price, and Kevin Tingay.

It was agreed to seek registration of the proposed body as a charity, and Leslie undertook to circulate drafts of a constitution. It was hoped to agree this at a further meeting, provisionally  scheduled for Monday 24 February 2014. The scope of FOTA would extend to all the Theosophical tradition, and not any one stream.  

Subject to the terms of the constitution, Kevin agreed to act as Chair of the new group, and Leslie as secretary. A Treasurer would also be required.

The meeting heard reports of the Amsterdam conference “ Enchanted Modernities” attended by Lynda and Janet, at which the FOTA initiative was announced.
