This is a pivotal time for PLASA as it reviews its long-term goals, and with issues such as safety, training and legislation high on the agenda, those who stand will be able to directly influence the way these aims are met, and the way in which PLASA moves forward.
Letters have been sent to all eligible members, inviting representatives to stand for the three places available, which have arisen as a result of the stepping down of long-serving members Mick Hannaford (LightProcessor), Sammy de Havilland (Deco Leisure) and Neil Darracott (Total Fabrications). If you feel you can make a positive contribution for the benefit of PLASA members, you need to return your nomination form no later than 14 November.
Even if members don't plan to stand, they should exercise their right to vote. A list of candidates will be sent to all Full EU members in mid-November with voting closing on December 1.
If you have any queries or wish to know more about what's involved, please contact Norah Phillips at the PLASA office on +44 (1323) 410335.
