Are you interested in social care and have an understanding of marketing, branding, communication and social media? Or perhaps you are looking at becoming a trustee for the first time, we would like to support you.

What will you be doing?

You will join a Board of Trustees who support the organisation in their governance role, through strategic planning support and as 'critical friends' to the leadership team.

      If I join Shared Lives South West as a trustee what can I expect?

      You will help enrich the lives of people we support by becoming a part of this friendly charity known for providing high-quality support to people as recognised by our recent "Outstanding" CQC award. You stand to also enrich your own life through the empowering and satisfying sector of volunteering as well as having access to training and development opportunities through SLSW. This is a voluntary post and would be offered subject to satisfactory references and DBS check. Voluntary, with travel and other reasonable expenses payable.
