Dear members and friends of ipernity,

For IGA 2026 the mandates for Vice President and for Treasurer are up for election. We have Corinne Pommerell willing to stand for re-election as Treasurer and Don Sutherland as VP.

Important - Executive Assistants needed

Anyone interested in supporting any of the mandates as an assistant is welcome to let us know. Know that being an extra pair of hands at whatever tasks, would be appreciated by the current four board members.

Our current treasurer is willing to stand for election, but only for one year as she will be moving on to other projects away from ipernity at that time. She would prefer to step down sooner, but is kindly remaining so we can find a replacement.

This means that at this time, in addition to the mandates, any club member who is an EU citizen who is unsure but might consider standing for treasurer next year should please come forward so they can be considered for an executive assistant position and shadow Corinne for as long is needed. We could easily use two such executive assistants. Executive assistants are appointed by the team member they would be supporting.

Please notify the team if you are such a club member, or if you know of some such member who might be interested and the team will reach out to them.


The Vice President organises the internal and external communication and public relations. This person coordinates all activities to promote our website in appropriate media, helping to ensure that our community has a sufficient influx of new club members. In detail, the duties of the Vice President.

The Treasurer draws up and monitors the annual budget, creates quarterly and annual reports and creates forecasts. They handle the manual membership renewals. Further details can be found in the ipernity statutes, Article VII. Section C.
Note, the Treasurer must be an EU citizen.

Data Protection Officer
. While not a position on the board, some of the duties of a DPO are important in helping to operate ipernity. But as the duties and legal responsibilities are onerous if the job is taken seriously, we are not looking for a volunteer. Noting that having one is not a requirement for ipernity.

We invite loyal and active club members who feel a part of our community and who care about the future of ipernity to make themselves know to us at any time.

Take this opportunity to shape ipernity's future together with us.

Being on the board as well as being an advisor is a rewarding adventure, so please contact us now.
