Migration Yorkshire works with VCS representation at sub regional strategic meetings to ensure the voices of migrants and those supporting them are heard at a strategic level.
There is a nomination process in each local authority in Yorkshire & Humberside so the VCS in each area can select their own representative to attend Sub Regional Strategic Migration Group meetings for Sept 2023-Aug 2024. I have offered to start the nomination process. Please see the role description and terms of reference for the meeting attached.
Migration Yorkshire ask that the process is clear and fair, and that the representative is nominated from and by the VCS and not statutory services. If there is only one candidate, the VCS still should agree that they should be the representative. So, this post is to ask if anyone is interested in taking up this role? If so, please notify me by 31st July, and I will then contact you all again with the names of those interested and asking for an anonymised vote.
I am interested in standing again to be your VCS representative and will be putting my name forward for your consideration. [email protected]
