The following District officers: President, Secretary, Ringing Master, Central Council Representative, Education Officer, Bell Restoration Fund Trustee, Bell Adviser and Diocesan Committee Representative are ex-officio members of the District committee.

Committee meetings and business meetings

Normally, there are three business meetings in a year, held as part of a District Monthly Practice. The the Annual District Meeting in January is one of the business meetings. There are two District Committee meetings a year, arranged at a time to suit the committee members, but in recent years they have been held after a District Practice.
