Governance
The founding trustees of the society will serve until a meeting of all members is held by the end of June 2020 to enable a board to be elected with the confidence and legitimacy of being democratically elected by all our members
Existing trustees can stand for re-election, as can any member who can be nominated. Voting in elections, like all votes in the society, is on a one-member, one-vote basis, so regardless of how much you invest, every member is united in their ability to influence what Get Cycling do.
Whilst the Board are legally empowered by their rules to make decisions on behalf of the business, members also have the opportunity to set their strategy at General Meetings. Get Cycling have one Annual General Meeting each year, but the Board may call more meetings to get members’ views, and 10% of members may also call a special meeting at any time.
