Dear All,
Today Gateway members engaged in a secret ballot to elect
member representatives for the new management committee.
I’d like to say a big thank you to all the members for
engaging in the process, attending information sessions and for putting
themselves forward – we had 6 members nominated to vote on this afternoon.
The results ended in a tied position at number two.
Following discussions with current Advisory Committee member reps and members
in Gateway after the result, it was agreed that given the circumstances and
interest that Gateway would proceed with 3 member reps on the Management
Committee. Oliver D will report this to the management sub group at their
meeting this Friday.
Congratulations to Maura F, Mick B and Oliver D on becoming
Gateway’s new Management Committee representatives for the future. Each
person will bring their own strengths and perspectives to the management of
Gateway. While we are waiting for the new Committee to establish itself
fully, we will provide our new reps with training and opportunities to practice
and learn at their own pace.
Thanks again to everyone involved for making it a fair, open
and inclusive process!
Best wishes
Fionn
