Key documents for the society
Griffins believes in being open and transparent in the way the society operates and so we publish copies of our Articles of Association, Annual Reports and other documents in the public domain.
We will be adding more information to this part of the site gradually over the coming months, so please bear with us if you can't find what you are looking for!
