• Accurate records, minutes, and compliance documentation.

• A Board that is supported, informed, and able to make confident decisions.

• A culture of integrity, accountability, and care.

• A legacy of trust and good governance that will sustain SUNSHINE for generations.

This is more than a role — it’s a chance to help write the opening chapter of a charity designed to lift people up, brighten lives, and transform communities.

Why SUNSHINE?

Because we believe in:

• Joy as a form of care

• Community as a source of strength

• Connection as a human right

• People as the heart of everything we do

If you’re someone who leads with purpose, values good governance, and wants to make a real difference, we would love to meet you.

Ready to help us bring more SUNSHINE into the world?

Let’s build something beautiful together — one smile, one moment, one community at a time.
