The TCPA Annual General Meeting (AGM) 2024 will be held on Wednesday 17 July 2024 at 6pm.
To make the meeting as accessible to as many members as possible, the meeting will be held virtually. All TCPA members are invited to attend.
As required by our governing documents, formal notice was emailed or posted to members on 16 April. That notice sets out that there are three vacancies on the TCPA Board of Trustees and 10 vacancies on the TCPA Policy Council in 2024. These roles are for election by the membership of the TCPA, and any individual member of the TCPA or representative of a member organisation of the TCPA may submit a nomination and stand for election.
In support of our Equality, Diversity, Inclusion and Equity Strategy, we are keen to broaden the diversity of perspectives in the Association, including on our Board and Policy Council, for example in terms of age, background, ethnicity and experience. We work with a wide range of people and sectors across the UK, and our governance needs to better reflect this. We also need a wide range of skills, knowledge, and expertise on our Board of Trustees. Following a Trustee skills audit completed earlier this year we would welcome nominations from people who have experience of HR, IT and charity governance.
Further information on the respective roles of the Board and the Policy Council is available at the links below. The TCPA’s Articles of Association and the TCPA Governance Handbook are also available.
If you are interested in getting more involved, we can put you in touch with an existing member of the Board or Policy Council to better understand the roles. If this is of interest, please contact Fiona.howie@tcpa.org.uk.
The nomination form for both Policy Council and the Board of Trustees is below. The completed forms must be received by email by Tuesday 28 May. The email address to send the form to is stated in the form.
The results of the Trustee and Policy Council elections will be announced at the 2024 TCPA AGM on Wednesday 17 July.
