Voluntary role: Trustee
We are welcoming those with lived experience of the UK asylum system and/or refugee family reunion to join our board. We are a small charity and our current trustees play various roles within the organisation, some taking a more traditional trustee role and some being more hands on with the work we do. All our trustees have good involvement with our case load as well as strategic decision making.
This is an exciting time for the organisation as we have recently seen a rise in the number of cases we are able to take on and in the types of work we carry out. This is in part due to new partnerships and grants received for our work. Our current focus is building our capacity and improving our offer to clients as well as looking at securing longer term funding.
What we’re looking for
Prospective trustees should be:
- Enthusiastic and have an interest in refugee related issues
- Willing to take an active role in the organisation
- Confident in taking part in meetings
- Competent with IT as much work is carried out remotely via email

- Lived experience of the family reunion process in the UK
- Work or voluntary experience with refugees and asylum seekers

- Experience of developing relationships with businesses and/or partnership working
- Marketing and/or fundraising experience
