Joining the Governing Body

Our Governing Body members are elected by the Association's Membership at the Annual General Meeting.

You need to be a member of the Association to be eligible to stand for election to the Management Committee.

Members receive nomination forms with the notice of the AGM.

Members wishing to stand for election need to be nominated by another member. You cannot nominate yourself. Completed nomination forms need to be returned to the Association's office one week before the AGM. Full details of the process are included in the AGM notification package.

Between Annual General Meetings, the Management Committee can co-opt members up to a limit of one third of elected members. Co-opted members do not count towards a quorum and cannot participate in the election of office bearers, but otherwise have the same responsibilities as elected members.

Contact the office if you would like more information about becoming a committee member.
