NBLT's Trustees | NB Leisure Trust

As a not-for-profit organisation and registered charity, NBLT is run by The Management Board, which is the governing body ultimately responsible for the actions and activity which the charitable organisation does. The Management Board is responsible for supervising the Senior Management Team and ensuring that NBLT is being well managed and operating within agreed policies, the law and its budget.

The Management Board is made up of Trustees. The Trustees’ act together as a group rather than as individuals in the furtherance of the charitable objectives of the organisation.
