Board of Trustees Update

Accrington Stanley Community Trust held their annual general meeting this morning and would like to give an update on the board of Trustees.

After serving as a board member and Chair of Trustees for the last 7 years, Peter Shaw has retired from his position. Peter joined the board in November 2011, during the early stages of the charity. During his tenure the charity has seen accelerated growth in all areas year on year and is now an award winning charity, after picking up the Hyndburn Community Business of the year award in 2016.

Also retiring from his position is Terry Neville, who served 4 years as a trustee. Terry used his experience in the education sector to help develop this area of the charities activities.
