Horizon Scanning Advisory Group

The role of our Horizon Scanning Advisory Group is to provide governance to our horizon scanning and foresight programme.

The group is comprised of Council members and it meets on average eight times a year. However, this can increase when there is ad-hoc work and opportunities to discuss.

Each group member serves a two-year term.
