Management Committee

The BCB Management Committee is elected each year at the Annual General Meeting (AGM). This is usually held towards the end of the year in November or December. Elected members hold the role for 3 years then can stand for re-election. There is a maximum of 12 people elected on to the BCB Management Committee. Two additional members can also be co-opted throughout the year, usually to fill a skills gap or for a special purpose. We have details about current Management Committee members on this website.

All members of BCB’s Management Committee are unpaid, elected volunteers making democratic decisions about BCB on behalf of BCB’s members. The Management Committee meets once a month, currently on the third Tuesday of the month at 5.00pm. This lasts about 1½ hours. There are also some additional planning sessions – usually once a quarter on a Saturday morning, as well as task groups and sub committees for you to be part of e.g. Finance, Employment, Programming, Health and Safety, etc
