Home-Start UK Trustee Vacancy

Contract: Voluntary Position
Time Commitment: Approximately two days per month spread across the year
About Home-Start UK
Home-Start is a federated charity consisting of a central national office – Home-Start UK - and over 170 geographically dispersed local Home-Start organisations, all working together under the same identity.
We recognise that being a parent has never been easy. Every Home-Start volunteer is trained to work alongside parents to overcome the challenges they are facing. We work with parents to build on their strengths and give them the support that they tell us they need. We offer no judgement – just compassionate, confidential help and expert support. This peer-to-peer support is key to the difference Home-Start makes and often our volunteers have lived experience of the challenges their families are facing themselves.
About The Role
As we embark on the development of our next multi-year strategy, this is an exciting time to join the board: you will have the opportunity to help shape the priorities and direction of a growing national charity.
Home-Start UK is seeking up to five people to join our Trustee Board to offer strategic support to Home-Start UK. You will join a strong, committed Board to strengthen further the breadth of experience and support our succession planning. Specific skills and experiences we are seeking at the present time are in the fields of safeguarding, fundraising, digitalisation, data and impact, financial and commercial, federated charities.
Home-Start UK believes in a world that is inclusive, diverse and equitable and we are committed to our Trustee Board reflecting this. Our Trustees represent a variety of backgrounds, skills and experiences and we are always keen to add further diversity, perspective and experience. You do not have to have been a trustee before - if you are passionate about making a difference for families, we can provide a supportive environment for you to step up into your first trustee role.
These roles will suit someone passionate about social impact and supporting children and families to make a lasting difference within a collaborative, values-led organisation.
If this sounds like your kind of opportunity, then we want to hear from you!
