Reference
Buxton Town Team is a community organisation made up of ordinary people who each pay £1 to join.
Founded in 2012, in the wake of the Government’s Portas Pilot initiative, Buxton Town Team was established as a Community Interest Company (CIC) whose objective is “to advance the prosperity of Buxton and the wellbeing of its community”.
We currently have over 300 members who appoint a board of directors. They are guided by a Code of Conduct, and their role and responsibilities are given in the Board Terms of Reference. The board meets regularly and notes of meetings, with other relevant documents, can be found in the archive below.
Safeguarding Policy: we ensure that the appropriate qualified leaders, teachers or parents accompany any young people or vulnerable adults who take part in our activities.
The current board comprises:
Lesley Caddy (chair)
Sarah Rawlinson
Emma Downes
Richard Silson
Karen Webb Green
Derek Bodey (treasurer)
