Who We Are
Formally the trustees of the organisation, MEG’s committee members initiate and oversee most of the activities of the group. Despite this formal structure, a committee member once suggested that MEG might best be thought of as a ‘collective’ – an energetic, informal group of peers, who aim to learn from the experiences of fellow members while sharing their problems and solutions.
