2023 Council Election results

News

5 December 2022

The results of the election were announced at the AGM on Wednesday 2nd November 2022.

Will Burrell, Alicia Instone, Rob Jackson, Parminder Lally, Suzanne Oliver, Debbie Slater, Sheila Wallace and Simon Wright were elected to serve on Council for a three-year term commencing 1 January 2023. Will, Suzanne and Debbie have been elected to Council for the first time. Alicia, Rob, Parminder, Sheila and Simon have been re-elected to Council.

This means that sadly we will see John Brown and Tim Jackson leave Council at the end of the year. Both John and Tim have made huge contributions to the work of Council and it will be sad saying farewell (but not goodbye) in December. Seán Harte was also unsuccessful this time in seeking election to Council.
