Governance

VLM is a charity governed by a voluntary Board of Trustees with members serving a maximum of two three-year terms. They must then take a break of at least one year before being able to serve one final three-year term. There are currently nine board members. They are drawn from diverse backgrounds including education, finance, overseas aid, charity, religion, and insurance, and bring to the board significant professional and decision-making skills achieved in their respective fields, together with a broad range of experience and views. One member of the board is the Congregation of the Mission priest, in line with the VLM constitution. Click to download VLM Constitution.
