What is a Trustee?
Trustees play a vital role in shaping the future of an organisation, overseeing operations, ensuring compliance, and supporting growth.
They come from a wide range of backgrounds and bring different experiences and expertise to the Board. While some roles require skills such as finance or HR, other roles prioritise lived experience or a deep commitment to the cause.
Trustees are also known as board or committee members, board volunteers, directors or governors.
