IPSA is pleased to be a participating Board on the Boardroom Apprenticeship Programme run by the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government (MHCLG), and set up to help those who would like to serve on a public or third sector board to learn and gain experience.

| Note | Information |
| * | This includes interests held by a board member that are directly relevant to his/her position within IPSA. It is not a list of all financial interests including all investments or loans held by a board member. It indicates where financial interests are held in a blind trust held independently from the owner so that a board member is shielded from involvement in their management. |
| ** | Shareholdings are not listed where they are de minimis in nature. |
| *** | In line with the Registers of Interest in the Houses of Parliament, property owned and/or occupied by board members for their own use is not included in the list. |
