Charities are led by a Board of Trustees, who are the people responsible for ensuring that a charity or community organisation has a clear strategy, that it remains true to its original vision, and that it complies with all necessary rules and legal obligations. There are always women's organisations looking for people to fill these vital roles.
Trusteeship is a great way to make a significant difference to a charity or cause you care about. As a respected and responsible role, it is also a brilliant route to developing new skills, gaining more experience and getting involved with new networks.
