BASC Council elections and AGM

Do you have the knowledge, experience and drive required to shape BASC’s future direction? Nominations are now sought for two national seats and one Northern Ireland seat on Council coming up for election in 2025.

Regardless of background or length of membership, BASC’s Council needs motivated and capable people. Your skills and experience may make you the ideal candidate. Now is the time to step off the sidelines and stand for one of the most demanding but fulfilling roles in the sector.

Prospective Council members must be ready to:

  • develop and own BASC’s strategy;
  • hold BASC to account for delivering against the strategy;
  • ensure resources and policies align to enable BASC to execute strategy effectively;
  • exercise clear judgement and accept real responsibility;
  • make tough but impactful decisions critical to the future of shooting and conservation;
  • demonstrate integrity and teamwork, always.

Nominations for election must be made formally in writing and submitted to the chief executive before the close of business on Tuesday 31 December 2024. They must be signed by the candidate, a proposer and a seconder, who must all be members of the association and entitled to vote.
