Action Group Meeting - cycling deaths caused by lorries

don't want to bog down this initial meeting, however if succesful and a desire to establish a charitable organisation i would love to offer my skills as a treasurer (i.e. all the boring stuff - setting up bank accounts and managing funding etc...)

thank you for this offer.
people have asked me about setting up a charity and I think perhaps this is the default action in this situation, but not necessarily the right one.
I didnt want to do it cos I think there are enough organisations already covering this. maybe the problem is they are not focused enough on this one particular (HGV vs Cyclist) issue. anyway, i dont know the benefit of a charity apart from fund raising. the public should not be funding this, we need to prove a case for the govt, for councils, for construction companies, the dvla, to fund this stuff. other people are raising awareness etc etc. we just need to help all these other people do this stuff better, and make them do the stuff that needs doing that they are not doing.
