Trustee Declaration Form

The Students’ Union is a charity with exempt status. There is a substantial body of government legislation and case law concerned with our activities and with the conduct of the Executive Committee, who are our trustees. Below is a list of circumstances which may prevent you from becoming a trustee.

You are not allowed to be a trustee if you:-

Are under 18 years of age. Have been convicted at any time of any offence involving

deception or dishonesty, unless the conviction is legally regarded as spent; or

Are an undischarged bankrupt; or Have made compositions with your creditors and have not been

discharged; or Have at any time been removed by the Commissioners or by the

Court in England, Wales or Scotland from being a trustee because of misconduct; or

Are disqualified from being a company director; or Have failed to make payments under the county court

administrators’ orders.

You may not be employed as student staff during your term of office.

If you are in any doubt about your eligibility to act as a trustee you should either seek your own legal advice or contact the Charity Commissioners.

I have read and understood the criteria (above) for being a trustee and confirm that I am eligible to become a trustee in the event that I am elected.
