Board of Trustees
The Board of Trustees is elected bi-annually and additional members can be co-opted by the elected Committee members. The Board meets on the third Wednesday of the month and it is responsible for the overall running of the Federation and ensures that its activities are within the objects of the WI and covers all its aims and interests. It makes Policy decisions and develops plans for the Federation. The aim of the Board of Trustees is to support and help WIs with planning and promotional ideas and events.
Your Federation Needs You!
We urgently need new members for your Federation Board of Trustees.
We currently have eight trustees, the bare minimum we are allowed under our Constitution.
Come March 2022, our Chair, Lorraine Reed-Wenman, will be stepping down after four years of holding the position and she will also resign from the Board of Trustees as again required by our Constitution. Lorraine has shown determination and tenacity in the role, especially during the long period of lockdown.
If you or any member of your WI is interested in becoming a Federation Trustee, please contact us, and arrange to come along to a Board meeting as an observer.
We’re currently still meeting online, and intend to continue this as an option going forward, so no matter where you are based, getting involved with your Federation is easy.
For more information, please email secretary@mfwi.org.uk.
