The voting for the RSA Trustee Elections 2013 is now open! ERS is conducting the vote on our behalf and you should have received an email from them on Friday. You will also receive a postal pack shortly which includes the 2013 AGM notice. Find out more about the candidates standing for election on the governance web pages and make sure you use your vote! 

The 259th Annual General Meeting will take place at 5pm GMT on Wednesday 9 October 2013 in the Great Room at 8 John Adam Street. You do not need to book for the AGM, but if you are planning to attend it would be helpful if you could register your place so we can keep an eye on numbers.

This year the RSA Trustee Board has put forward one resolution:

‘To approve the Trustee Board’s election of Sarah Ebanja as Treasurer which requires the concurrence of the AGM’

Trustee Elections 2013

The RSA Trustee Elections are a very important part of the governance of the RSA and we encourage you to vote. Electoral Reform Services has been asked to administer the Trustee Elections and AGM on behalf of the RSA.

Voting has now opened for the Trustee Elections; there are three elected vacancies.    

Before voting, we strongly encourage you to read the personal statements of the candidates standing on the Governance web page. 

In addition, all candidates have recorded a brief video explaining why they are standing and what they would like to achieve as a Trustee. Watch these videos now. 

Information and voting papers for the RSA Trustee Elections have been sent to all Fellows along with the RSA AGM 2013 notice.  You can cast your vote electronically using the unique link emailed to you or if you would prefer you can use the ballot paper included in your AGM postal pack.

If you have any questions about the voting process and the codes needed, please contact ERS Customer Services on 020 8889 9203 or email them at onlinevoting@electoralreform.co.uk. Please make sure you have your Fellowship number to hand.  

The ballot is open 24 hours a day and closes at 5pm GMT on Monday 7 October 2013.  Please ensure your vote is cast by that time.
