Everton have confirmed the start of the process of electing members to the club's independent Fan Advisory Board (FAB).
The FAB will ultimately consist of supporters from various demographics and they will be consulted on a plethora of strategical factors. Everton have also confirmed the FAB will regularly be in touch with key decision-makers at the football club, including the board of directors.
There will be 11 members on the new independent Board, seven of which will be representatives of various groups that make up the Everton Stakeholder Steering Group.
