Our Committee

The Management Committee is elected from among the members at the Annual General Meeting (AGM). There are up to 15 places available on the Committee.

The Committee meets most months and sub-committees can be set up to deal with particular aspects of the Association’s affairs.

Some of the Committee’s main functions include:

  • Governance and financial management
  • Employment of senior staff
  • Review of policies
  • Major decision making and organisational direction
  • Ensuring we meet statutory and regulatory requirements

Committee members act in a voluntary capacity and do not receive payment for their work, only reasonable out-of-pocket expenses

    Ann McEachan Committee Member

    Date Elected to Committee: 2012

    I was born in Govan in Nethan Street.  I attended Greenfield School where Community spirit was always at the heart of everything they did and that stuck with me throughout my life and effectively remains the value I bring to Committee. I worked as a silver service waitress and I enjoy meeting new people. I believe in the power of Community and the welfare of the tenants and how valuable their input and listening to their feedback contributes to effective leadership at Committee level. In free time I enjoy time with her family and my dog.

    I am now retired after gaining experience in many roles such as Electrician, working in the Mecca entertainment and printing industry and after training, I worked as a supervisor in the Security industry.
