Find information on the role and responsibilities of a Local Party Executive Committee Member here.
Time: frequent meetings, with ad hoc work in between
Each local party has people elected to their Executive Committee as Ordinary Members, who do not hold specific roles. These are people who help by having a say in how the local party is run, and by taking on ad hoc roles and helping with special projects.
Being a committee member enables you to help guide the party in the best possible direction, and you can do it without taking on a specific functional role.
You can join the Liberal Democrats Local Party Officers Facebook Group, to make contact and share best practice with other officers.
This role suits someone who is generally quite competent, and who likes to look at the bigger picture of their local party. It's ideal for somebody who wants to be involved, but who may not want an official position.
Ordinary Members of the Executive are elected at your local party's AGM.
Your local party's AGM usually takes place between October and December.
Any local party member can stand for the Executive Committee.
