The 2013-4 season is the tenth anniversary of the Trust and with that in mind, we hope to make the Trust bigger and better than ever before by increasing our membership and fundraising to record levels.

As you may be aware, following the pitch cover purchase last season, we have a surplus of funds with which to kick start our next major project. With that in mind, we will be meeting with Trust members in the very near future to canvass opinion as to what to do. As always, no major project will be undertaken without members voting to do so.

We are looking at increasing our activity for the next season with two special projects. We will start the new season with the re-launch of Junior Dale after many months of planning, and we hope to add to that with the launch of the Former Players’ Association which we hope will come to fruition by the time of the Trust anniversary dinner in April.

We will continue to act on behalf of supporters with the already excellent relations that we have with the club, and we intend to build on our relations with both the FITC and the Supporters Football Team.

We’ve already made great strides to improve communication with our members through our online work with the website, facebook and twitter, and our weekly e-newsletters ensure that members are always fully up to speed with what’s been done, is being done and will be getting done. Furthermore, as part of our events, we will be hosting consultation evenings where we actively seek out the thoughts and opinions of our members.

Not only that, we’ll be continuing all the existing work we’ve been doing with plenty more to follow as well as we strive to make the Dale Trust the most open and accountable Supporters Trust in existence.
