Our Board
The Aldershot Town Supporters Trust board is made up of Trust members elected (or co-opted) to control the running of The Aldershot Town Supporters’ Society Ltd.
Elections to the Trust board are held every year at our AGMs, and – as a Trust Member – you will be invited to put yourself forward to join the board. However, members are able to join the board at any point throughout the year.
The Trust are always looking to hear from enthusiastic people who have the skills and time available to drive the Trust forward. You can email the Trust directly at info@theshotstruts.co.uk telling us who you are, why you would like to join and what skills you can offer.
