Being a Director for the Northumberland Hills Cycling Club isn’t just about leadership—it’s about being part of a fun, welcoming team that wants to make a difference. Interested Club members are encouraged to participate in our board meetings informally, offering ideas and joining discussions without any obligation. It’s a great way to see what goes on behind the scenes, contribute to the club’s direction, and get to know fellow directors. Only officially elected directors however, have voting rights—which means they get a formal say in shaping the club’s activities, events, and future.
If you’re interested in taking a more active role, becoming a formal Director is easy. Vacancies are filled by election at our Annual General Meeting. It’s a fantastic opportunity to be more involved, share your passion for cycling, and help ensure the club continues to thrive. Serving on the board is a rewarding way to give back while having a great time with fellow cycling friends—plus, we just have fun!
