Membership

The Trust is run by a executive committee of up to 11 Trustees. There are three categories of Trustees:

• Those elected by the members of the company at its Annual General Meeting – maximum of three.
• Those nominated from agreed named organisations, such as the Parish Council, Village Hall committee
• Those co-opted onto the committee by the first two groups. There is a limit to the size of this last category in that it must not exceed a third of the total number of Trustees.

 

General membership of the Trust is open to any individual or organisation who supports the objects of the trust and who applies and is approved by the committee. Membership of the trust provides the ability to vote at annual general meetings.

 

Membership request forms are available and once completed should be returned to the company registered address.

 

Members will receive regular updates on the progress of the Trust along with details of forthcoming events. In addition increased membership allows the LCT to demonstrate community support, which is of benefit when seeking grant funding.
