Co-opted Members

Co-opted members sit on one of AUKL committees and may also be part of project teams. They work closely with the CEO and Trustees and bring special skills which they use to help AUKL achieve its goals and aims. They are volunteers and we are very grateful for the time and resources that they contribute to AUKL.
