Membership.
WISH has two types of members:
- Full members – constituent organisations which represent sectors of the industry
- Affiliate members – individual organisations such as companies and local authorities
A list of full and affiliate members is available. A full definition of membership is included in the WISH Constitution.
From the full membership, a ‘WISH Steering Group’ is drawn to conduct the routine business of WISH, and ensure progress is made on the WISH Strategy and blueprints.
