**Trustee Role Volunteer Recruitment Information**

The role of the Trustee Charity trustees are the people who share ultimate responsibility for governing a charity and directing how it is managed and run. They may be called trustees, the board, the management committee, governors, directors or something else. Trusteeship is a great way of contributing to causes you care about and developing strategic and leadership skills at the same time. Charity trustees have six main duties;

1. Ensure your charity is carrying out its purpose for the public benefit.

2. Comply with your charity’s governing document and the law.

3. Act in your charity’s best interests.

4. Manage your charity’s resources responsibly.

5. Act with reasonable skill and care. 6. Ensure your charity is accountable.

The Trust is governed by a Memorandum and Articles of Association and overseen by a Council of voluntary trustees elected by its members. Individually each trustee contributes actively towards governing the organisation effectively, giving firm strategic direction, determining policy, defining long term goals, setting annual targets and evaluating performance against agreed targets and goals. This involves scrutinising council papers, leading or participating in discussions, focusing on key issues, and providing advice and guidance on new initiatives or issues relevant to the Trust’s work. Trustees have the responsibility to ensure that the Trust:

- complies with its Memorandum and Articles of Association, charity law, company law and other relevant legislation and regulations, and pursues its charitable objects as defined in its memorandum of association.
- applies its resources exclusively in pursuance of its objects (i.e. the Trust must not spend money on activities which are not included in its own objects, no matter how worthwhile or charitable those activities are).
- is financially stable (with funds properly invested), and effectively and efficiently administered, and that its property and assets are properly managed.
- appoints the CEO and monitors their performance.

**About you**

If you join our passionate team, you will be promoting and championing the work of the Trust within your local communities and spheres of influence. Trustees are encouraged to use any relevant personal knowledge or experience to help the Council provide sound strategic leadership for the Trust. You will also be expected to safeguard the reputation and values of the Trust. There is a time commitment of 5 Council meetings per year (evenings) and an expectation that trustees read all Council papers in advance in order to actively participate in discussions. Knowledge, understanding, skills, experience and personal qualities ideally required are:

- Commitment to the organisation and prepared to volunteer your time and effort.
- Strategic vision.
- Good, independent judgement and a willingness to speak your mind.
- Ability to think creatively. - Understanding and acceptance of the legal duties and responsibilities of trustees.
- Ability to work effectively as a member of a team.
- Nolan’s seven principles of public life: selflessness, integrity, objectivity, accountability, openness, honesty and leadership.
