The Board of Directors

San Fairy Ann CC is run by its members, for its members. It has a Board which is elected annually by its members. Each election is for a 1-year term, and then members must stand again for election.

The rules for the election are laid out in our regulations and articles - each member has one vote, and we can have a Board of a maximum of 10 people. Elections take place in September each year by online or postal voting.

Once the Board has been elected, they meet together and divide responsibilities between them to collectively cover all aspects of the Club's work.

Directors, like all of our volunteers, are unpaid. The President, elected annually, is not a Director but is entitled to attend and contribute to all Board meetings.
