Assembly Executive

 

Northumberland CVA won the contract to facilitate and support the Northumberland VCS Assembly in Autumn 2014. The steering group that was already in place to lead the Assembly continued on an interim basis and by the end of June 2015, the Assembly was in a position to have a democratically elected Executive Committee of twelve members and invited nominations to fill these roles. 

Membership of the VCS Assembly Committee is drawn from across the spectrum of Northumberland’s Voluntary and Community Sector and you can find a list of the current members at the bottom of this page.
