About WAST
We are a grassroots organisation led-by and for women seeking asylum in Greater Manchester. We campaign for social justice and women's rights through a peer-led support model that helps women find their place in the UK. Women seeking asylum continue to live in a hostile environment where they often feel vulnerable and isolated. WAST (Women Asylum Seekers Together) seeks to combat this by offering a safe space where women can be heard, build confidence, and develop new skills.
The Roles
Due to the retirement of three long-standing trustees, we are recruiting four women to join our diverse Board of Trustees and help us deliver projects that the women themselves have identified as priorities.
One of these positions is for a Treasurer, who will support the Board in overseeing the charity’s finances, ensuring strong financial management and sustainability.
We are also particularly interested in recruiting more Trustees with lived experience of the asylum system, or the immigration system. WAST’s Chair and Honorary Chair have lived experience, and we would very much value more women with lived experience on our board.
The current Board have a diverse range of skills. We particularly welcome applications from women with experience of campaigning, fundraising or human resources. However, this should not put off any potential applicants who may bring other qualities to the Board.
If you feel that you have the energy and time to contribute and are committed to improving the lives of women seeking asylum, we would love to hear from you.
Please see the Recruitment Pack and Role Description for further information. If you have any questions or would like to arrange an informal chat about the role please contact the email given in the Recruitment Pack.
Please note: This is a voluntary position. This role is also open to women only, as permitted under Schedule 9, Part 1 of the Equality Act 2010, in line with WAST’s commitment to providing programmes and initiatives led by and for women seeking asylum.
