Shared Lives Plus board
SharedLivesPlus is a registered charity and a not-for profit company limited by guarantee.
We operate in accordance with the rules set out in our Memorandum and Articles
of Association. The Board of Trustees has responsibility for the governance of
the charity and meets quarterly. There is an Annual General Meeting each year
in which members vote in person or by post on key issues. You can find our latest
Annual Report and accounts below.The Trustees are mainly democratically elected representatives of the network
of members. They are informed by the work of our committees.
For Shared Lives members there are four country advisory committees with representation from across the country. The committees meet four times
a year and their Chairs are put forward to become UK board members.
England (with the largest membership) is further divided into eight branches, which meet regularly to discuss issues of common interest and concern. Each
of the branches has representation on the England country committee.
For Small Community Service and Homeshare members: each has an advisory committee which meets regularly. One board position is reserved for a Small Community
Service member.
