The Election Management Group (EMG)

The role of the Election Management Group (EMG) is to ensure that the election is run in accordance with the AFT’s Election Policy. In order to maintain the integrity of the election process, the Chair of the EMG is an independent person who is not a member of the Trust, and members of the EMG are not eligible to nominate candidates nor be a candidate themselves.

The EMG was appointed by a vote of the Trust Board members, as follows:

  • Neil Le Milliere, independent EMG chair
  • Tim Chown, AFT Secretary

To contact the EMG, you can email the EMG chair at neil_le_milliere@btinternet.com or call on 07946 615889.

With the number of candidates not exceeding the number of available places on the Board, the nominated candidates – Suan Clark, Virginia Pike, David Stephens and Roger Willis – will be deemed elected, subject to an affirmative vote at the AGM.
