National Executive Committee

The National Executive Committee (NEC) is the association’s policy-making body. It supports and co-ordinates the association structure and meeting process and represents the membership at a national level. The national officers are accountable to the NEC.

The NEC comprises fifteen members. Ten of whom are drawn from across the five districts (two per District). These are normally the district chair and secretary, although this is not a requirement. Each district elects its NEC representation at its AGM.

In addition to the district representatives, there are five reserved place members representing gender issues, BAME, LGBT+, disability and Welsh members. The non-voting members are the national secretary and assistant secretary. The NEC meets five times a year.
