About
Louth LEADER Board of Directors


The Louth LEADER board is comprised of 19 representatives from the State agencies, voluntary and community bodies and the business community. All board members and evaluation committee members do so on a voluntary basis, and freely of their time and expertise on behalf of the development of the county. Board membership changes annually, with 1/8th of the membership retiring, thereby allowing new expertise from the various sectors to become involved at board level.
