Committee Application Form

Please do not be daunted by the application process: all candidates will be contacted and asked to attend an interview with two of our committee, so please give the form your best shot. Unsuccessful candidates will be reconsidered in future years.

It is important that you consider the time commitment involved in becoming a committee member so please do contact us if you would like further advice.
