TRUSTEES AND OTHERS
About the Trust The five Trustees who run BCT on behalf of the local community are elected by the local members of the Trust, which is everyone on the Electoral Registers for Birse parish.
The Trustees have themselves to be local members of the Trust and, under BCT's constitution, at least one of them has to stand down each year at BCT's AGM, so that there is on-going scope for new Trustees to be elected to help run the Trust.
The current Trustees following BCT’s AGM in June 2011 are Charles Insch (Chairman), Dorothy Dinnie (Vice Chairman), Jean McLeod, Gary Grant and Ken Taylor.
The local membership also appoints a local member for a three year term as BCT’s Patron on the recommendation of the Trustees. The current Patron is Robert Dinnie.
BCT’s financial year runs from 1st January to 31st December and the Trustees have an average of ten Board meetings a year (click here to see recent Board Minutes). The Trust’s AGM is usually in May.
BCT has a wholly owned subsidiary, the Birse Trading Company (BTCo). The current BTCo Directors are local members Christine Wright, David Younie and Paul Chapman.
