Help children as Trustee of an innovative North East Charity
Help children as Trustee of an innovative North East Charity that supports families, children and children in care through family help, fostering and a planned residential home. Help us transform children's lives.
As a minimum, you will also join finance or people and culture committee.
What difference will you make?
We want to help children and family members heal from trauma, primarily through helping them develop a network of nurturing, loving and appropriately challenging relationships with people in their close and wider communities. Any small surplus we make from helping children in care will be diverted into work to help families stay together and thrive. You will join a team that strives to make this difference. You will help ensure the Charity keeps a strong focus on children and young people's needs whilst being sustainability and ensuring the agency manages the risks associated with growth and investment in new services.
