Our Committee – The heart of the club

Emersons Green Running Club simply wouldn’t be possible without the dedication of our amazing committee members.
Every committee member plays a vital part in keeping the club running smoothly, fairly, and transparently for all our members.

Whether it’s supporting new runners, planning events or managing communications, each committee member helps shape the
welcoming community we’re so proud of.

Interested in getting involved? Every place on the committee is vacated at our January AGM before elections take
place for committee positions for the year ahead.

We’d love to have you on board – get in touch if you’d like to get involved.

Neil Newman

Chairman

The Chairman of Emersons Green Running Club heads the committee and helps it support the membership, shape the club’s direction, and ensure a welcoming, well-run environment where runners of all abilities can thrive.

I help bring all the members together to ensure we have vibrant running committee. With social events and Sunday socials, and the odd sausage and chips.
