South Midlands Region BMMC have been looking to recruit some new members to our Regional Committee. The Regional Committee is responsible for planning and delivering all the BMMC events in our region, including Training days, Recruitment events and Taster Days. Committee members also manage the regional entries in the volunteering database, advise on and co-ordinate upgrade applications, support members who have questions and queries, manage club regalia sales, edit the bi-monthly newsletter, manage both the region’s pages in the national website and the regional social media, and co-ordinate the region’s activity in environmental and sustainability matters as it affects our sport, so there is role to suit everyone. After a first nomination period, during which four committee members were elected, there remained two unfilled vacancies, plus a further vacancy from the required resignation from the committee from our newly elected Regional Chair. A second nomination period was therefore opened for these three vacancies.
Nominations for the Regional Committee closed on October 5th at 5pm. At that time one nomination had been received, and it fully complied with all the requirements of the Club Rules. In accordance with Rule K.3.11, as the number of candidates does not exceed the number of vacancies, I can confirm that the following member has been elected to the South Midlands Committee without the need for an electronic vote:
Andrew French
I am sure you will join me in congratulating him on his success and look forward to his work on the committee.
