Trustee (Medical) - Volunteer Opportunity

3 weeks ago


Wimborne, United Kingdom Julia's House Full time

Julia’s House Hospice are seeking a new Trustee to replace a member of our Board. Trusteeship is a voluntary role, with relevant expenses remunerated.
The Medical Advisor trustee will be medically qualified and ideally will have experience of working within a charity.

This is a great opportunity to guide and help Julia’s House hospice in its care for children and young people with life-threatening and life-limiting conditions. Julia’s House provides regular respite care, end of life care, sibling support, counselling and bereavement support.

Role of the Medical Advisor
- There are six Board meetings a year, and each Trustee generally also serves on one specialist sub-committee comprising another six meetings per year. Meetings are weekdays late afternoon / early evening. Some meetings are held face to face while others are held on Zoom.
- The medical advisor usually serves on the Clinical Governance committee and with other members of the Governance committee will advise on, review and ratify proposed policies and procedures as well as advise and appropriately question the senior nursing and medical team regarding the overall medical and nursing care provided by Julia’s House.
- Trustees are encouraged to regularly check in with other trustees and the Doctors employed by Julia’s House.
- Trustees are responsible for all aspects of the charity’s governance, and must respect confidentiality.

For an informal discussion and further information we can arrange for you to speak to either our Hospice Doctor (Dr Martin Hussey) or The Hospice Director of Care (Claire Hudson-Cooper).

Julia’s House is committed to encouraging equality and diversity among our workforce and our aim is for our workforce to be truly representative of all sections of society and our clients, and for each employee and volunteer to feel respected and able to give their best. Based on our current Board of Trustees’ membership profile, we have identified that there is an under-representation of: (a) individuals of Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic backgrounds; and (b) people living with a disability, so we would especially welcome applicants with these backgrounds for this position.
