Charities and other third sector organisations are often required to have a Board of Trustees to oversee the activities of the organisation. They typically meet four to eight times a year and require a diverse range of skills and perspectives in order to effectively support the organisation and ensure that it is delivering to the needs of its intended beneficiaries. You can find out more information about becoming a trustee here.
