LCiL Management and Governance
The Lothian Centre for Inclusive Living operates as a charitable company with limited liability. There is a membership and an elected Board of Directors. As a Disabled People’s Organisation (DPO) more than half of the Board of Directors must be disabled people and the Convenor must also be a disabled person.
The Board sets the framework and strategies of operation and development of the Centre. Staff are employees of the company through the Board of Directors.
