Governance

Governance of Clydesdale ARC

Clydesdale ARC is governed by its constitution and is a Scottish Charitable Incorporated Organisation with registration number SC045523.

The day-to-day operation of the club is the responsibility of the Committee, which consists of 16 Trustees. Trustees are elected by club members at the AGM, usually held in November once club accounts have been signed off by auditors.

Trustees meet on a monthly basis, usually on the first Thursday of the month. Minutes of each meeting are approved at the following meeting (or once all outstanding issues have been resolved) and distributed to club members after approval.

Details of the 2023-2024 Trustees (elected at the AGM on 7th December 2023) are below. If you require the contact details for a Trustee and they are not listed below, contact the Membership Secretary. Please do not include any sensitive information; the correct person will contact you and request any relevant details. 

All of our club’s governance documentation can be found on this page. This includes the Constitution (approved at the AGM, November 2018) and Club Policies.
