Scleroderma & Raynaud’s UK (SRUK) launched in April 2016 as the result of the merger of two patient organisations: the Raynaud’s & Scleroderma Association (RSA) and the Scleroderma Society. We are the only charity in the UK dedicated to improving the lives of people affected by Scleroderma and Raynaud’s. We exist to improve awareness and understanding of these conditions, to support those affected, and ultimately to find a cure.
We are a small, ambitious but mighty charity, with a dedicated and friendly team of 12 led by Sue Farrington, who is also President of FESCA, Federation of European Scleroderma Associations.
Treasurer opportunity
We are looking for a Treasurer with strong financial expertise and relevant qualifications. While experience with charity finance, the Charities Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP), and investment portfolio management is desirable, it is not essential. What matters most is your ability to oversee financial matters, analyse proposals, assess financial implications, and ensure the charity remains financially sound and compliant with statutory obligations.
This is an exciting and transformative time for our charity. As we scale up, we aim to significantly increase investment in research and services, ensuring that everyone affected by Scleroderma or Raynaud’s has access to the best possible treatments, information, and support. Joining us now offers the unique opportunity to help shape this ambitious journey and have a tangible impact on the lives of those we serve.
