The Board of Directors
Governance is entrusted to a Board of up to twelve voluntary non-executive members, who bring a wide range of skills and experience to ensure we are providing a quality service to all our customers.
The Directors are appointed for a maximum of nine years, and within that term they are required to be re-elected every three years. The Directors are not remunerated for their services. The Board meets five times a year, including the AGM, and also holds an annual one-day review of our performance.
The Board's primary role is to agree the strategic direction of the organisation, ensure policies, plans and resources are in place to achieve strategic objectives and monitor progress against them. It ensures the organisation is compliant with statutory legislation, contractual requirements and that risk management is a high priority throughout the organisation.
The Board also establishes and oversees a framework of delegation and systems of control. It delegates day to day management of activities to the Chief Executive. It has also established two sub committees:-
- Performance, Governance & Audit - which has responsibility for quality assurance, audit matters and financial procedures
- Human Resources - which has responsibility for remuneration and employment for all staff
