Want to join our Governing Body?

We currently have spaces on our Governing Body,  we would advise you to attend some of the LINk monthly meetings before joining the Governing Body to see if you like the way the LINk works.  Already a regular? Then talk to one of the staff or Governing Body members about attending a Governing Body meeting and making your application. 

Once a year, at our Annual General Meeting in March, we hold votes for the Chair, Vice Chair and all members of the Governing Body.  If, during the year, someone wishes to join the Governing Body and there are spaces available, then the existing Governing Body may choose to co-opt them onto the Governing Body.
