How to stand in the Governor elections
In order to stand for election we ask you to request a nomination form, or complete one online. Prospective Governors should write a statement (of no more than 250 words) about why you are standing for election to become a Governor, and what experience you can bring to the role. It helps bring your nomination to life if you are also able to submit a passport-sized photograph of yourself.
Nomination Forms are now available.
If you require a hard copy of the form, please email secamb@uk-engage.org.
If you need any support, contact the Returning Officer on 0345 209 3770.
The deadline for completed nomination forms is 5pm Monday 02 October 2023. If you are returning your form by post, please ensure you allow sufficient time for it to arrive before the deadline.
