Trustee Vacancies

**What could you bring to the board of a charity that provides comfortable and friendly homes for elderly residents in West Yorkshire and is passionate about providing a safe and happy environment and helping residents to stay in their homes for as long as possible?**:
Frank Parkinson was a pioneering electrical engineer, notable for the early development of electric lighting and motors. He and his brother established a company in their hometown of Guiseley, West Yorkshire, which prospered and grew into Crompton Parkinson. When Frank Parkinson died in 1946, he designated a large part of his considerable fortune to the creation of the Trust.

The Trust continues to promote the charitable objects set out by Frank Parkinson, which include:

- The provision of almshouses for elderly people in Guiseley
- The relief of, and assistance to, those people in need in the Guiseley area
- The funding of education and training within or connected to the electrical industry

We are currently recruiting two new Trustees to join our Board.
