Volunteer Trustee to join a charity supporting the elderly in the local community | Age Concern Orpington and District
Join us as a Volunteer Trustee at Saxon Day Centre, a charity dedicated to supporting the wellbeing of older people in the local community.
About the Role
We are seeking trustees to help with the strategic management and oversight of the Saxon Day Centre. This centre provides day care to support older adults, including those who are physically frail or have dementia, offering them a day out and respite for their carers.
Impact of Your Contribution
As a trustee, you will play a vital role in ensuring the success and sustainability of our services, directly benefiting the community, clients, their families, staff, and volunteers. You may choose to actively participate in centre activities or support from behind the scenes, knowing your efforts are greatly appreciated.
What We Are Looking For
We seek individuals who share our vision that older people should be supported to thrive in later years. Experience in business, management, finance, or working in regulated environments is desirable. Experience in health or social care is beneficial but not essential. Transferable skills and a proactive attitude are highly valued.
Responsibilities
Our board, which includes roles like Chair and Treasurer, develops strategies to ensure the charity’s viability and high-quality services. Trustees bring their skills to support the team and may lead initiatives aligned with their interests or expertise.
Additional Information
Age Concern Orpington & District operates independently, relying on donations and service income. We are committed to supporting older adults and providing opportunities for them to enjoy their later years.
