The last 12 months has seen a lot of ‘behind the scenes’ change for WULN, with the adoption of a new constitution at a special general meeting which allowed for the move from a member based committee to a member and skills based Board.
The new Board was voted in at our recent AGM and met for the first time on Thursday 12 December.
Prior to meeting, the retiring committee and the new board met over dinner as a joint farewell and welcome.
We want to thank our outgoing committee members Julia Jones, Janette Reynoldson, Neil Offner and Heather Davies (Secretary) for their valuable contribution to the governance of our organisation over a number of years.
We also welcome the new Board members Simon Fisher, Sam Hagen, Caitlin Lawrence and Peter Staley, and returning members Julie Hind, Elaine Jamieson, Sharleen Sharp and Kate Sleeman.
The Board appointed the following people to executive positions:
- Julie Hind – Chair
- Elaine Jamieson – Secretary
- Kate Sleeman – Treasurer
Sam Hagen was appointed as the Board’s representative on the newly formed Operational Committee and Peter Staley and Elaine Jamieson will join the Finance and Risk Committee.
We are looking forward to the leadership and support from our new Board in 2025!
