Charity support volunteer roles
KCSC are seeking an experienced and committed individual to join the Board and take up the role of Treasurer. Ideally someone who lives or works in the borough but more importantly has an understanding of charity finances and has possibly had a previous role as Treasurer.
ABOUT US
Kensington and Chelsea Social Council (KCSC) is the Council for Voluntary Services for the borough of Kensington and Chelsea. Our vision is for powerful, engaged communities driving change and our mission is to strengthen and champion local communities and the voluntary and community sector.
We are a membership organisation, registered as a charity and company limited by guarantee and represent 600 voluntary and community organisations on our database and to whom we aim to provide a range of services, some of which include:
- Advice, guidance and information to help organisations run as effectively as possible
- Bringing voluntary organisations and community groups together to network and support partnership building
- Working closely with residents, resident associations and social action groups to address key local issues and ensure their voices are heard at decision making level
- Advocating on behalf of the local voluntary and community to help influence and shape local decision making
We are especially keen to ensure long-term sustainability of our local community by working with everyone to develop an inclusive, active borough.
You can read more about KCSC on our website.
BEING A TRUSTEE
As with any charity, trustees have overall responsibility for making sure it is running well and is doing what it was set up to do. This includes ensuring the charity:
· Spends its money sensibly on the activities it was raised for
· Does not break the rules in its Articles - the charity’s governing document
· Continues to meet our commitments to the communities we serve in accordance with our charitable objectives
· Follows the law, including preparing reports and accounts to send to the Charity Commission
A NEW TREASURER
Our current Treasurer has been serving on the Board since 2021 and has supported the organisation through a difficult economic climate and has helped shape and improve the way in which trustees monitor income and spend through a system of key performance indicators that are reported on. His commitment, time and financial knowledge he has brought to the role has been valued and made our financial reporting more robust over the years. Upon stepping down the incumbent is willing to support the incoming treasurer over a period of time to ensure a smooth transition into the organisation.
We are therefore seeking an experienced and committed individual to join the Board and take up the role of Treasurer. Ideally someone who lives or works in the borough but more importantly has an understanding of charity finances and has possibly had a previous role as Treasurer.
The Treasurer Role primarily is as follows:
· Overseeing, approving and presenting budgets, accounts and financial statements
· Making sure that the financial resources of KCSC meet its present and future needs
· Ensuring that KCSC has an appropriate Reserves and Investment policy
· Preparing and presenting financial reports to the Finance & Personnel Sub Committee and the Board in collaboration with the CEO and Director of Operations
· Ensuring that appropriate accounting procedures and controls are in place and are compliant
· Advising on the financial implications of KCSC’s strategic plans
· Keeping the Finance and Personnel Sub Committee and the Board informed of its financial duties, responsibilities and obligations
· Advising on the preparation / submission of financial reports to funders and the Charity Commission
· Overseeing and advising on financial risk and financial management of KCSC
ABOUT YOU
You will have experience of charity accounting and able to provide guidance on ensuring the organisation adheres to charity accounting principles and policies. Previous experience of being on a charity board would be preferable although not essential. However, a commitment to the furtherance of the voluntary and community sector and its role within civil society and subscribing to our stated mission and values is important.
THE COMMITMENT
The Treasurer will need to commit to attending a total of 8 Board/Sub Committee meetings a year as well as spending a few hours each month on attending additional internal meetings with CEO/Director of Operations/Chair on financial matters.
JOB ROLE
To read more about the job role please see the attachment.

We only agree in those cases where the charity can clearly demonstrate that the waiver is in the best interests of the charity

Woodgreen is a charity that’s here for pets and their people. We started our journey 100 years ago. We’ve done truly amazing work along the way, helping countless pets to get back on their paws. However, our mission remains as important, and urgent, as ever…
The landscape for pet rescue and support has changed greatly in the last few years. Our trustees’ expertise, passion, enthusiasm and strategic leadership is pivotal in ensuring that Woodgreen’s pet services are impactful, sustainable and adaptable.
It is an exciting time to join the Board of Trustees at Woodgreen as we move forward with a new pathway that empowers pet owners with the vital information they need at every step of the pet ownership journey – achieving better welfare outcomes for more pets.
Our trustees provide clear strategic direction and ensure that our work stays true to our mission. To match our ambition and commitment to the welfare of pets and their people, we are seeking new trustees from a diverse range of professional backgrounds and experience within these key areas:
- Accountancy and charity finance
- Charity fundraising and income generation
- People
- Treasury
With 5 Council meetings per year and up to 5 additional committee commitments our trustees support and challenge our Executive Team to set policy, strategic objectives and goals whilst evaluating performance against them. They ensure that we carry out our activities and use our resources solely for its charitable purposes – the relief of the needs of pets through care and rehoming, and the education of the public as to responsible ownership and care of pets.
We aim to make becoming a Trustee a thoroughly rewarding experience and it’s a great way to expand your professional and personal network, through meeting and working with likeminded people that share a passion for promoting animal welfare. With a strong commitment to promoting equality, diversity and inclusion we welcome applications from a wide range of candidates to help us scale our impact and delivery of our mission. We are always seeking new talent and are open to applications from candidates who may combine any of the above skills/expertise with other experience or talents that may benefit our charity.

Across the UK, our 270 local groups play a vital part in supporting people affected by MS. They provide sense of belonging, unity and friendship. And they deliver services and support for their local MS community.
We are looking to recruit a Support Volunteer for the Alton-Petersfield Group. As our local group Support Volunteer you’ll help people affected by MS find information about local and national services. That could be helping someone access local information about the care or benefits they need or giving them a hand with a grant application. See a video about one of our Support Volunteers here.
In this role you’ll be able to develop your listening and communication skills, as well as your knowledge of local services. Most importantly you’ll help people affected by MS to access the help they need.
