Children’s Social Care Trustees St Michael&rsq...

St Michael’s Fellowship secures the best possible future for children by working directly with parents. Parenting is the biggest single factor affecting children’s well-being and development. St Michael’s work with parents with difficult histories such as neglect, domestic violence, mental illness, and substance use to break cycles of abuse. The services and programmes they provide are at the heart of St Michael’s Fellowship. They work with parents so that children can be happy, healthy and confident. St Michael’s is now looking to strengthen its board and is seeking two Children’s Social Care Trustees - a children’s social care expert who can share their knowledge having worked in such a capacity. You will help shape safeguarding systems and improvements and develop their service moving forward. Trustees have a duty to ensure that the charity is well run, solvent, legally compliant, and working towards the charitable purpose for which it was established, and Trustee roles are an important and a highly rewarding way to support an organisation. Please note that Trustee roles are unremunerated voluntary positions, although reasonable travel expenses will be paid. St Michael’s Fellowship is committed to equality of opportunity, supports, and encourages under-represented groups, and values diversity. We seek people from a wide range of backgrounds, who will bring a fresh perspective to the Board, and having reviewed existing Trustee's diversity, skills, and experience, St Michael’s are keen for the Board to reflect the diversity of the communities that they work with and therefore welcome applications from all sections of the community.
