Pensions Board membership

The Pensions Board itself acts as a trustee to the pension schemes and charities, and typically meets five times a year.

There are 12 members, with the Chair appointed by the Archbishops of Canterbury and York with the approval of Synod. The remaining members of the Board are either elected or appointed by the members and employers of the pension schemes, and other interested bodies.
