Board

The Board of Directors is responsible for overseeing First Community's operations and affairs. The Board is also responsible for ensuring that First Community Health and Care CIC is organised and operated in a manner consistent with its Articles of Association as an employee owned social enterprise.

Each quarter we issue a Board Brief, which provides the latest updates from key areas of our business including: updates from Board meetings; the ongoing work of our shareholder representative group - our Council of Governors; and news from our Community Forum and the First Community Network. All of these play an integral role in shaping our services and are the heart of our organisational governance structure. If you would like to receive a copy please contact us.
