Scrumptious free lunch and annual members' meeting

We shamelessly try to entice our lovely members to join us at the annual members' meeting (AKA AGM) with the bribe of freshly-made baguettes, gluten-free sandwiches, and a range of puddings - all lovingly prepared for you by our talented volunteers! Photos above are genuine photos of a previous AGM feast.

Against cultural headwinds, Dorset Humanists seems to be holding its own. Our membership numbers are stable and our finances are healthy. We regularly get good turnouts for our lively events. We do a lot of great community work behind the scenes, speaking to thousands of schoolchildren about humanism, taking part in civic and interfaith events. We are a respected community organisation in the local area and a leading humanist group nationally and even internationally.

This is all possible because of your encouragement and commitment to the importance and relevance of humanism to our turbulent yet endlessly fascinating human world.

Our AGM is not a boring affair (well, there are a few boring bits but we get through those bits efficiently). It’s an opportunity to look back, take stock, and look forward. We also mark the occasion by awarding one of our members with the coveted Humanist of the Year award!

So do join us for an informal buffet lunch at 1.15pm and the AGM at 2.00pm. Non-members are also welcome to attend but only subscribing members can vote. You can join on the day for just £15.00 to become one of our subscribing members and unlock immediate voting privileges!
