Our governance

The 快活影院is governed by a Board of Trustees who are responsible for the overall governance and strategic direction of the charity and for the effective delivery of its charitable objects. The Board consists of up to nine Elected Trustees and up to three Co-opted Trustees. Day-to-day leadership of the organisation is undertaken by an executive team, led by the Chief Executive.

Election to the 快活影院Board of Trustees 2025

Each year one-third of the Board鈥檚 nine Elected Trustees are required under the 快活影院Rules to retire by rotation and an election process is carried out. 

The recruitment process to become an Elected Trustee starts with the Nomination Stage. This Stage involves eligible candidates nominating themselves (鈥渁pplying鈥�) to stand for election to the role. They do this by completing a Nomination Form and submitting it to the Society鈥檚 independent scrutineers in the manner and time frames stipulated within the Nomination Pack.

Any 快活影院member can nominate themselves for election as long as they meet the qualifying criteria. In particular, candidates must have been an 快活影院member for a continuous period of at least 12 months immediately preceding 30 April 2025 (there are some other exceptions so please refer to the 快活影院Rules and Byelaws for more details). Applicants will also need the support of 2 eligible members. 

Once due diligence checks are complete, the 快活影院membership will vote on which nominees to elect to the Board (the 'Voting Stage'). Successful candidates will be appointed for a three year term commencing at the conclusion of the Society鈥檚 AGM on 11 October 2025. 

The Nomination Stage for this year's elections closed at 3pm on Wednesday 30 April 2025.

The 快活影院members鈥� ballot (Voting Stage) is currently open and election materials, which also include details on how to vote, have been sent to all members eligible to vote. The Voting Stage closes at 3pm on Friday 3 October 2025.  Please note that papers were sent alongside the Society鈥檚 AGM materials and if you receive your packs by email these will have been sent to you by our independent scrutineers from the email address takepart@cesvotes.com
