The Fabian Society is proud to be a democratically governed, member-led society. Our executive committee is elected by all members every two years. The next election takes place in September and we warmly welcome new applicants. Elections for the Young Fabian and Fabian Women’s Network committees will take place at the same time.

Nominations are now invited for:

  • 10 executive committee places

Election will be by postal ballot and electronic ballot of all full national members and local society members. Nominations should be in writing and individuals can nominate themselves. Local society nominations should be made by local societies.
