How can I become a trustee/director of MhIST?

There are two ways that an individual can become a trustee/director of MhIST:

1 – Be nominated and elected by a group within the MhIST structure at the AGM to represent that group. For example, be a member of a self-help group, the talk therapy team, the advocacy team and so on. There is sometimes a competitive election where two or more people want to take the role.

2 – Be co-opted to the board. This is usually where a person has skills that are specifically needed and they are asked to join or where a person from the nomination and election route joins the board between normal periods of election.
