Trustee Week

Make a difference by becoming a trustee today

Every charity in the UK needs trustees to operate, yet across the UK there are over 100,000 vacant trustee positions. With Trustees Week 2024 now upon us, it is the perfect time to help your local charities by becoming a trustee.

Charity trustees are volunteers responsible for running a charity by managing the assets of, and assuming legal responsibility for, their charity’s management and administration. In order to fulfill their position, charity trustees undertake roles in management, finance, marketing, fundraising, and much more. 

Becoming a trustee is a great way to support causes close to your heart whilst developing professional skills and expanding your personal network. The work of trustees has ensured that hundreds of charities across Devon have been able to continue delivering vital services to those most in need, so your passion and commitment really could change peoples lives for the better! 

Our Become a Trustee Today page on Devon Connect houses various trustee positions currently open in a variety of different charities across Devon. Take a look and find the opportunity for you today.
