Governance and accountability

All you need to know about the NHF's governance and its accountability to members.

Constitution

We operate under Articles of Association 2022 (PDF, opens new window)

Our board

We have a board of 12 people who set the strategic direction of the Federation and work with the leadership team.

Our board has two sub committees:

  • A risk and audit committee that considers, in detail, risk and the financial viability of the Federation
  • A nominations, remuneration and governance committee that reviews the Federation's own governance, acts as the remuneration committee and recruits  for new board members.

All sub committees are accountable to the board and report to the board as necessary.

Accountability

Our main mechanism for accountability to our members is the annual general meeting (AGM).

Who to speak to

Linda Hammond, Board Secretary
