About the board
Our board of trustees is a friendly, dedicated and active group. Our six trustees help run committees and groups, and are passionate about the goals of the organisation. The board meets once a month at present (this will move to less frequently in time), and meets remotely over Teams.
Why join us?
This is an exciting time to join us, as we implement our strategy for 2024 onwards. Over the next five years we want to develop our services, invest in new ways of supporting people, and grow our service to meet the increased need for support. We are also implementing awareness campaigns and training workshops.
