About

Board of Trustees

The Board of Trustees is elected from the BABCP membership, by members. Trustees have a duty to the membership, and the public as a registered charity, to ensure the organisation operates appropriately. The trustees are ultimately responsible for ensuring BABCP has a strategic direction [PDF] consistent with organisational aims and objectives, and for safeguarding its assets.

Our Board of Trustees consists of President, President Elect/Past President, Honorary Secretary and Honorary Treasurer with six Ordinary Trustees.

Trustees serve for three years except the President, who serves a total of four years including a year as Future President and a year as Past President.

Each Board member also sits on a standing committee. The Board Terms of Reference [PDF] outlines its aims and governance.

President: Andrew Beck (Chair)

President Elect: Saiqa Naz

Honorary Secretary: Colin Hughes

Honorary Treasurer: Jacqui McKenna

Trustees: Colin Blowers, Michelle Brooks-Ucheaga, Peter Elliott, Tom Reeves, Dr Louise Waddington, Stephen Wilson
