Board of Directors

About us
CASWA offers support to women and their children who have been abused by a partner or former  partner in the Caithness & Sutherland area. We work  closely with a range of statutory and voluntary sector  organisations.

We are looking for diverse, motivated, and enthusiastic  women who are committed to our vision to join our  board of directors for the organisation

The role
“We are proud to be part of an organisation that works  within the community, to support women and children  who are going through some of the most difficult times in their lives. And we are proud to lead a team who are  so connected to their work.”

The board sets the strategic direction of the  organisation and will ensure that all legal and regulatory requirements are met, and best practice is promoted.
As a board member, you will be required to contribute to  the governance of the organisation including attending  bi-monthly board meetings and the AGM.
You may be asked to undertake other duties such as representing  the organisation at external events or in the media; or  assisting with fundraising, network or influencing work. 

In return you will receive all reasonable expenses, a comprehensive training and support programme and the knowledge that you have helped to make some women, children and young people in Caithness and Sutherland safer and more secure

More information
