8.8 Polls

Polls are a way of grouping members by some particular characteristic that may be used when filtering The Membership List (see 4.1). 

Typical uses for a poll include:

• Members who don’t wish to receive the Third Age Matters magazine (TAM)
• Members who receive paper copies of newsletters or AGM documents
• Members willing to assist at meetings and events
• Committee members (but see also U3A Officers)
