Prepared by Stephen Tudor Hon Sec.
The club was formed by Memorandum of Association 1960 (Memorandum). This sets out the objects for which the company was established, principally ‘to promote and further the sport of yachting and sailing, amongst members, in Cardigan Bay’ (3a)
The Articles of Association (Articles) sets out how the company will fulfil the objectives set out in the Memorandum. The Articles have been revised many times and was replaced in its entirety in 2003. There have been some subsequent minor amendments/additions to the Articles by ‘Special Resolutions’. An example was a Special Resolution at the AGM in 2010 to allow electronic communications with members. The Memorandum, Articles and Special Resolutions are registered with Companies House.
Section 35 of the Articles enables the Management Committee to ‘... make, alter and repeal any byelaws they consider necessary or expedient or convenient for the proper conduct and management of the Club’ BUT may not be inconsistent with our Memorandum, Articles or in breach of any statutory provision.

CHPSC moved to our new home in Plas Heli, the Welsh National Sailing Academy and Events Centre in July 2015. This move happened in the middle of a very busy summer.
There has been a lot of changes in the way we operate in the new environment and it is important that we listen to the opinions of our customers so that we can improve the service and experience for the benefit of all of our members, visitors and guests.
Could you please complete the following short survey - the information will be of assistance to the Sailing Club and Plas Heli teams in preparing for the activities in the Spring.
