TRUSTEE VACANCIES
Our strategy has been very successful, and this has ensured strong growth over recent years. We need to strengthen our small Board of Trustees to allow 4EDEN to remain effective. Trustees can make a difference by helping to make key decisions, provide guidance, direction and oversight. New board members can bring a fresh perspective and valuable experience.
Being a Trustee is very satisfying as it provides the opportunity to give something back to your local community, while aiding personal development. We particularly need knowledge from some key business functions such as Marketing, HR, IT, Strategic Planning or Operations. Although we would encourage those who have life skills in any of our business areas or the voluntary or care sectors to consider applying, as you will certainly be able to make a difference.
YOUR COMMITMENT
Generally, we hold around 11 meetings a year. These are made up of four Board Meetings, an AGM where you would be required to attend. Plus, Sub-Committee meetings that discuss specific topics. You would only need to attend those where your area of expertise is needed or if you are interested. They usually last about 90 minutes. In addition, there may be some events organised to promote 4EDEN.
The role of Trustee is a voluntary position, therefore unpaid.
