Chairman, Secretary, or Treasurer. In addition,any Trustee's who have resigned during the year pdior to the AGM can be replaced.
Those elected then serve for a term of two years in the case of a Trustee or for a term of three years in the case of Chairman, Treasurer and Secretary. Those appointed serve until the AGM that is held in their final year unless they resign or are otherwise disqualified according the Articles of Association. In addition to those elected the Trustees have the power to both replace those who resign (or are disqualified) and to co-opt up to four additional Trustees, who serve until the next Annual General Meeting.
