is also possible to be an individual affiliated member for anyone who is not able to join a flower club, and to enjoy the benefits of being a member of NAFAS. Members are also affiliated to WAFA – the World Association of Flower Arrangers. Each of the 21 affiliated Areas hold Council Meetings at which each flower club has representation. The Areas in turn are represented at National Council which meets four times a year. A Board of nine Trustees is elected at National Council to oversee the policy and finances of the charity. A national chairman, 1st vice-chairman and 2nd vice-chairman head the organisation for a period of two years in each office. A company secretary is employed as are three other full-time staff. The Headquarters of the Association is a splendid Georgian merchant's house at 12 Devonshire Square in the city of London bought in 2001. Previously the Headquarters were at 21 Denbigh Street in Pimlico. The present building usually opens every two years as part of the London Open House Weekend when the public may visit and see some of the organisation's activities.
