New Trustee Invited to B&NES CVS Trustee Board.

B&NES CVS are inviting the Voluntary Sector Form to put forward potential candidates to sit on the B&NES CVS Trustee Board. (currently this is the trustee board that of CVS North Wiltshire). Sandra Niven (Vision Bath) has fulfilled this role until earlier this year but she is now stepping down. Anyone assuming this role would be a Trustee of B&NES CVS and would represent the views of the VSF on the Trustee Board. CVS North Wilts do reserve the right of final selection of any nominees to the B&NES CVS .
