Glas Cymru has no shareholders and is operated solely for the benefit of our customers. In January 2008, and following a round of public advertisement, Glas Cymru appointed 21 new members bringing the current number of independent members to 72 - a full compliment.
A key role of the Members of Glas Cymru is to ensure that the business remains focused on its primary purpose of providing high quality water and sewerage services to the communities served by Welsh Water. In doing this, Members carry out an important corporate governance role, and for this reason membership is personal and Members are not appointed to represent any particular group or stakeholder interest.
Members are appointed by the Board under Glas Cymru’s published Membership Policy on the advice of an independent membership selection panel. A list of current Members can be accessed by clicking here.
A podcast has been produced which features two of our existing members who each explain more about the role of a Glas Cymru member. To view the podcast please click here.
We anticipate a further round of public advertisement to recruit new members in Autumn 2009. However, if you would like to know more about our membership please contact:
