Sherwood Community Centre: Treasurer Opportunity
Sherwood Community Centre is seeking a committed Treasurer to join our Board of Trustees and help safeguard the financial health of our much-loved community hub providing financial oversight and liaising with our independent book keeper and accountants.
What difference will you make?
The Treasurer’s contribution will directly shape the future of Sherwood Community Centre. By strengthening our financial planning, reporting and long-term sustainability, you’ll help ensure that the Centre remains a safe, welcoming and vibrant place for everyone who relies on it.
- Your work will support a huge range of community activities—everything from early-years groups and youth sessions to wellbeing classes, social clubs, support groups and cultural events.
- Many of these activities are lifelines for people who would otherwise be isolated or unable to access affordable opportunities locally.
- By helping us make confident financial decisions, you’ll enable us to maintain and improve our ageing building, invest in new programmes, and secure the funding needed to keep our doors open.
- You’ll also play a key role in helping us adapt to rising costs and changing community needs, ensuring we can continue to offer low-cost, inclusive services for years to come.
- Ultimately, your leadership will help protect a much-loved community asset and ensure that thousands of local people continue to have a place to connect, learn, grow and feel part of something bigger.

- We bring a mix of community knowledge, professional experience and lived insight, and we work closely with our staff team to support a busy programme of activities, room hires and community events.
