What does the Steering Committee do?

The Steering Committee is the Party’s central decision-making body outside of Party Conferences. It steers the direction of the Party by agreeing strategy, planning ahead and reacting to internal and external factors. It monitors the Party’s activities and outcomes against its mission, aims and objectives, and makes sure the Party’s activities are within the budget it sets and approves each year. It is also the body with the sole discretion to decide when and where WE stand candidates in elections.

Who should put themselves forward?

The Party needs a breadth of experience, skills and expertise in these important strategic roles. Committee members need to be able to debate, listen, analyse and work together to reach consensus about Party direction. If you are committed to steering and growing our movement of political activists, to making it diverse and representative of all women, if you have the time and energy WE need, please put yourself forward.

Please note: the deadline for applications for steering committee roles has now passed.
