Advisory group

As part of the Hub pilot programme, running 2025-6, and to support the governance of the Hub, we formed an Advisory Group in late 2025. In the context of Hubs and Hub pilots, the VSN currently uses a "light-touch" governance approach, appropriate to the work that we do, and the Advisory Group is intended to support this.

The terms for the group can be found here. The form for applications to the Advisory Group, was here.

More information about the Advisory group, including details of membership, and past minutes of meetings, can be found here.
