What does being a Member of Hanover involve?
Hanover is run by a Board which is made up of volunteers who are committed to ensuring that the organisation is run efficiently; that high quality services are provided to our customers and that the organisation is in good financial health and meets all regulatory and legal requirements. Members of Hanover elect members of the Board at the Annual General Meeting (AGM).
Only members of Hanover can be elected to the Board and only members can vote in Board elections. Any member can stand for election to the Board, provided they can demonstrate that they have relevant skills, knowledge, or experience to take on the responsibilities of being a Board member. Members can nominate other members for election to Hanover’s Board. The only restriction for membership of Board is that only one person from a household can stand for Board membership.
