So just to be clear:

- The TLERA is emailing people saying that to hold a special general meeting their constitution requires a written request signed by 15 households, including a statement regarding the purpose or subject of the meeting;

- Yet their own constitution published here: http://www.tewkesburylodge.org.uk/agm.htm simply says at article 5 that "Special General Meetings of the Society shall be held at the written request of fifteen or more members whose subscriptions are fully paid up". It makes no mention of this being signed (email is writing), or of the need for a statement regarding the purpose of the meeting.

A little strange?

Perhaps, seeing as they are asking for the purpose of the meeting, the Pipilings supporters should point to article 15, which allows for the TLERA to be wound up upon a vote of 2/3rds of the membership at an SGM, and the funds distributed to one or more charitable institutions with similar objectives - the Pro-Pipilings TLERA, perhaps...?

It would also be interesting to know which of their permitted objects in article 2 the TLERA thinks its support for the closure of the nursery falls in, because it isn't clear to me.
