The Trustees

Any fundraising organisation enjoying the
confidence of its supporters must have a good book of rules. The Conservation Trust's book of rules is a Deed which has been approved by the Charity Commission. The Deed requires strict observance of good accounting practice.

The Trust is controlled by its Trustees who must be not less than three nor more than ten in number. Although they are all volunteers, they are obliged, under charity law, to act as prudent businessmen would in promotion of the Trust's aims. No Trustee can profit from the Trust. Trustees include appointees of The Parochial Church Council, Ludlow Town Council, and Ludlow Civic Society (Ludlow's long established amenity group). The intention is that the very best talent should be made available to the Trust. The Trustees appoint their Chairman from among themselves.

To ensure a constant flow of new blood, Trustees must retire by rotation every three years and cannot serve for more than six years. The Chairman can only hold office for three years. Contact will be maintained with the interested public by holding a regular General Meeting.
