Visionary local charity providing respite breaks to people seeking asylum, refugees & victims of trafficking & Torture - seeks creative and committed Trustees
Sanctuary Breaks is a Stroud-based charity which aims to enhance the mental health and wellbeing of people seeking asylum, refugees and survivors of trafficking or torture by providing opportunities for them to enjoy respite breaks and stays in Hill House, a beautiful family house and large garden in a secluded and delightful location in Amberley.
We are a relatively new charity with a small team - 3 part-time staff supported by a committed team of volunteers - but have recently had an exciting offer of the gift of ownership of Hill House. So we now have an ambitious plan to expand our programme and build our staff team and are actively exploring the opportunities and challenges this might create.
With an experienced and committed but small Board of Trustees, we now need to recruit more trustees who can support the further development of the Charity and help take it to the next level.
We would love to hear from people who share our commitment to helping people who have faced forced migration to feel welcomed and included in our community, particularly if you have one or more of the following areas of knowledge or experience:
- Charity Fundraising, through grants and/or trading
- Property management
- Charity governance
- Personal experience of forced migration
- charity accounting and financial management
Not sure you have enough, or the right experience? No problem: being a trustee can also be a great way to develop leadership and management skills and enhance your CV, so, if you share our values and want to learn more, we’d still love to hear from you!
Interested? Please send us a short summary of your reasons for wanting to becoming a Trustee of Sanctuary Breaks and what relevant experience and skills you feel you can contribute to our charity plus the name of two referees. When we receive your application, we will be in touch to arrange a time to meet for an informal chat and to explain the rest of the Trustee Recruitment process.
In your cover letter, please tell us why you'd like to be a trustee of Sanctuary Breaks and what you can bring to our organisation. Please also provide the names of two referees
