Board Trustee
2 weeks ago
The Board of Trustees supports the Charity to ensure that NHP operates within the law and meet our charitable objectives. They do this by working with NHP staff and expert advisers from CLNM to ensure that we are working to our vision and mission in everything we do.
With other trustees you'll be responsible for the governance of the organisation, its strategic development and ensuring the charity is well run. You'll demonstrate what it takes to deliver effective services and be able to make good decisions. You'll have a deep commitment to Equality, Diversity and Inclusion and will value the lived experience and expert status of young people who are beneficiaries of our work.
The Board currently has seven members, and in addition to recruiting a Trustee with safeguarding expertise to replace Glynis who is about to step down, we are keen to recruit two further Trustees who will bring expertise and capability to the Board. We actively encourage approaches from people of different ages, physical ability, sexual orientation, race and religious belief and importantly those with care experience.
