The Trust is seeking new Trustees
The Trustees are appointed on fixed terms and a number will be stepping down over the next 1-2 years on completion of 2 terms since the Trust was founded in 2014. The Trustees are therefore looking to appoint new Trustees to take on the running of what has become a very vibrant and successful charitable trust. If you would be interested in becoming a Trustee and want to find out more about what it entails please contact Michael Newton, the Treasurer of the Trust for further details.
