 Dear IEVOA Members,

  

 An announcement…

  

 With our AGM fast approaching on 9th April I wanted to let you all know that after four years on the IEVOA committee, the past three as chairperson, I have decided to step down from the committee at the AGM.

  

 It has been a privilege and honour to serve the EV community in Ireland, but the time has come for me to refocus on family and my own business, and of course to offer someone else the opportunity to lead the association onwards, there is much work still to do.

  

 Hopefully this gives our future committee candidates some space and time to set out their stalls ahead of the elections.

  

 We’ve achieved a lot, this past year in particular, and I will of course provide a full update at the AGM, so look forward to seeing you there.

  

 Thanks & Best Regards,

 Simon Acton – IEVOA Chairperson
