Chair of Porsche Club Great Britain (PCGB), Mark Hamilton, has announced today (9 December 2021) that Bicester Heritage in Oxfordshire is set to become the new home of PCGB.
The strategic move will bring with it many benefits and allow the creation of a top-quality destination for members and meet the growing needs of the Club for years to come. The planned move will take place over the next 12 months.
The acquisition of a new building on the existing Bicester Heritage site will enable the Club to provide a full range of facilities that cannot currently be delivered from Cornbury House, home of the Club for more than 20 years.
All members are invited to become involved in the project and as part of the engagement an Extraordinary General Meeting (EGM) is planned to take place in January to discuss the move. A formal announcement of the EGM will be issued in the coming weeks along with the full agenda.
Members can pose questions directly to the Board via email at bicesterquestions@porscheclubgb.com . The Board aim to respond as soon as possible to questions or within five working days.
Common and relevant questions will be added to the Q&A document at porscheclubgb.com/bicester
