The Council of Governors is either elected by the public, our
staff or nominated from partner organisations. It is responsible
for representing the interests of members and influencing the
Trust’s future plans.
Who makes up the Council of Governors?
The Council of Governors will be made up of 24
elected and appointed governors.
- Thirteen will be elected by the public.
- Three by our staff.
- Eight will be appointed from our partner
organisations.
The majority of our governors (16 out of 24)
will be elected to carry out their role on behalf of staff and
public members. Governors therefore are accountable to the
members.
Our Chair will chair of the Board of Directors
and the Council of Governors and will ensure directors and
governors are aware of their respective roles and
responsibilities.
The Board of Directors is responsible for the
day-to-day running of the Trust.
