CANW is a charity dedicated to supporting children, young people, vulnerable adults and families who need help and we’ve been doing this for 130 years.
Our history stretches all the way back to the founding of Blackburn Orphanage in 1886. A lot has changed since then, but many of the challenges facing those in need are similar today.
We have the experience and the passion to focus on the support needed by children, young people, families and communities across the North West and beyond.
CANW is seeking to recruit up to four new Trustees. Applicants should bring all of the following skills, experience and attributes:
-
A commitment to the organisation

A willingness to devote the necessary time and effort
-
Strategic vision
-
Good, independent judgement
-
An ability to think creatively
-
A willingness to speak their mind
-
An understanding and acceptance of the legal duties, responsibilities and liabilities of trusteeship
-
An ability to work effectively as a member of a team
-
A commitment to Nolan’s seven principles of public life: selflessness, integrity, objectivity, accountability, openness, honesty and leadership.
We are particularly interested in hearing from candidates with skills in one or more of the following areas: Finance and treasury, Commercial Law, Business Development and Growth, and Digital.
At CANW, we know diversity fosters creativity and innovation. We are committed to equality of opportunity, to being fair and inclusive and to being a place where all belong. We are keen to ensure our board membership reflects our values and therefore particularly encourage applications from candidates who represent faith and cultural communities and from young people especially those who may have lived experience of the care environment.
