Plus Dane is governed by a Board comprising of up to twelve Non-Executive Directors supported by up to six Independent Committee Members.
Non-executives bring various skills from across a number of industries, in line with our Board Knowledge & Experience Framework. Skills planning allows us to ensure our Board consists of an agreed blend of non-executives ensuring that they have the requisite skills to govern effectively and protect Plus Dane and our social housing assets. We also aim to have an inclusive Board which is representative of the communities where we work, this includes having non executives with direct experience of living in social housing.
There are four Committees that support the Board, which comprise of non-executive and Independent Members. Independent members are appointed to a committee but do not serve as a non-executive member of the Board. The Board is also supported by the Customer Assurance Panel who looking at issues that affect customers so that we can improve the customer experience and be the best we can be.
