The Friends of Abbeyfield Park (FOAP) are reconstituting as a Charitable Incorporated Organisation, and seeking individuals to join the Trustee Board that will govern the organisation.
The Trustee role is a voluntary position that sets the direction and oversees the work of charities.
The typical commitment for a Trustee is to attend a monthly Board meeting; other responsibilities may be taken on according to the skills and availability of the Trustee.
FOAP are seeking to recruit Trustees from diverse backgrounds and particularly those with the following skills/interests:
building/facilities management
heritage, arts and culture
community/volunteer development
business development
fundraising
Becoming a Trustee is not only a valuable way of contributing to a charity, but also a rewarding experience that can help individuals to broaden their interests and develop skills such as strategic planning, decision-making and project management.
To discuss this role further please contact abbeyfieldpark@gmail.com.
