UITC have this afternoon confirmed the appointment of Ruth Walkden as a trustee as reported on BN yesterday.
This from UITC:
Nick Vaughan, Chairman, said: “A familiar face to many Bulls fans, the Board is delighted to be making this appointment. We’ve had a pressing need for this position to be covered at Board level for some months and with Ruth’s considerable experience of both local government and the voluntary sector and specifically children safeguarding, the organisation will be in an even stronger position to fulfil its various legal and safeguarding obligations. The Board are looking forward to working with Ruth as we reach the end of the current season and work on new initiatives for the 2016/17 season.”
Commenting on her appointment, Ruth said: “I am delighted to be joining the Board at UITC and intend to make a positive contribution to the organisation in whatever way I can. We are in the process of buying a house in Hereford so I will soon be able to commit the necessary time and energy to support the excellent work currently done by all at UITC”.
In other news, the Board have confirmed resignations from Nick Nenadich and Chris Hall.
Commenting on these resignations, Nick said: “Chris has been extremely supportive of the UITC over the years and we are sad to see him go. However, the Board continues to look forward to working with Chris and his colleagues at Cargill who have been particularly supportive of the Trust since my appointment as Chairman last year.
As many will know, Nick Nenadich kept UITC going following the winding up of the old football club and he worked incredibly hard to build the organisation we have today and we are indebted to him. I place on record my thanks to both these individuals who have both contributed so much to this fantastic organisation we are all proud to be supporting.”
