Description
The Newlon Group is recruiting for new voluntary Board members for Outward, our Care and Support charity based in London N17.
Since 1976, Outward has been providing innovative housing management, support, and care solutions to people in need. Whether we are providing care and support in partnership with local authorities or supporting people via direct payments, our aim is always for the individual to determine what kind of support we offer. Our focus is on enabling people to have greater choice, independence and control over how they live their lives. As part of the Newlon Group, we manage supported housing for over 350 people and work across 8 London Boroughs. We provide services to a wide range of people, including people with autism and learning disabilities, empowering and enabling people to live independent lives.
We are looking for committed individuals who really want to make a difference in helping people with disabilities to live independently and can demonstrate a clear understanding of the challenges our charity and the people we support face.
We are keen to recruit Trustees who are genuinely passionate about the positive impact that good social care can make. Perhaps you already have experience as a Trustee and want a new challenge, or perhaps you have relevant skills and are looking for your first opportunity to join a Board and be involved in a large and successful charity.
Joining a charity board is a great way to contribute to your local community, develop strategic experience, further develop skills and be part of a committed team with common values and goals. It is a fantastic and fascinating way to engage in the charity sector and it’s a role which will give back just as much as you put in and more
We are committed to ensuring our Board reflects the diversity of the communities we serve and welcome applicants who represent the vastly diverse group of people we support and employ.
To strengthen our Board we are looking for people firstly, and most importantly, with a real commitment to empowering people who face challenges due to their life circumstance or disability. In addition, we would particularly welcome people who have additional experience in any of the following areas.
However if you feel you have other skills to offer our charity would love to hear from you;
1. Experience and knowledge in managing, inspecting, commissioning and/or developing care and support services, particularly for people who have high care and support needs
2. Experience as a health or social care professional, preferably in adult social care settings
3. Experience of regulation in social care or other fields
4. Lived experience as a carer or advocate for a person with learning disability or autism.
