The Brigade Executive is our Trustee Board, and has responsibility for setting the strategic objectives for the charity, for monitoring the delivery of the Strategic Plan and in ensuring there is good governance arrangements in place to comply with statutory obligations.
The Brigade Executive meets regularly throughout the year and is supported by a range of sub-committees to assist in the implementation of strategy, including Regional Committees.
