Make a difference: Become a Trustee with Stay!

Stay is a leading homelessness charity in Telford and Wrekin and has been operating for over 30 years providing housing and support services to homeless and vulnerable people. We’re passionate about preventing homelessness and empowering individuals to rebuild their lives.

We're looking for enthusiastic individuals to join our Board of Trustees.  The role is voluntary but travel and other reasonable expenses are paid. You do not need previous governance experience – we will provide an induction and training.

 This is a fantastic opportunity to:

· make a real difference to the lives of homeless individuals and families.

· gain valuable experience in charity governance and leadership.

· work alongside a dedicated and passionate team of individuals.

· contribute your skills and knowledge to a worthy cause.

We are looking for someone:

· with energy, enthusiasm, and commitment, who will broaden the diversity of thinking on our board.

· who is a strategic thinker with decision-making skills.

· who is a team player.

· with effective communication skills and a willingness to participate actively in discussion.

· with enthusiasm for our vision and mission.

We are particularly interested in individuals with experience in one of the following:

· Health and Safety

· Human Resources / Employment Law

· Law

However, all applications are welcome from those who share our passion for helping others. We welcome applications from all sections of the community.

Whether you are an experienced trustee or wanting to take your first step at Board level we would like to hear from you.

What will you be doing?

We are looking for people to join our board of trustees to help take Cheltenham Almshouses and Aid forward.  We would particularly welcome those with experience of building maintenance and development of new properties, health and safety, finance and investment, risk control, social care and marketing.

Many of the properties we own are of older stock and there is a constant challenge to keep the buildings well maintained and up to standard, in line with health and safety requirements whilst providing comfortable and affordable living.

We have recently built four new wonderful apartments within a conservation area and may possibly in the future look at extending our current stock of properties with more new builds.

We have a healthy balance sheet and would look to new trustees to guide the charity with new investment opportunities.

At present we have little presence on social media and would welcome a trustee on board who could help us in this field and ultimately give us the presence we so need.  By maintaining a wait list this reduces the risk of void apartments and subsequent decrease in income.

We provide housing to many people who are working but cannot afford the market rents, for those retired who want to live in well maintained, peaceful communities.  Some of our beneficiaries may need help with more personal matters such as benefit applications, liaising with social services, the clerk will deal with these aspects directly but additional knowledge of areas such as benefits and pensions would be immensely valuable to our beneficiaries, some of whom may not have any family members nearby to support them.

Many thanks for your time reading this.

What are we looking for?

• Communications and Marketing
• Building and conservation, property and maintenance
• Health and Safety within housing
• Finance 
• Leadership 
• Legal

What difference will you make?

This is an amazing opportunity to give a small amount of time, whilst knowing you are making a real difference to the lives of our residents. 

With you on board as a trustee we can ensure that the Almhouses continue for many, many more years, helping those less fortunate by providing safe well maintained homes in wonderful communities, while ensuring the long term financial stability, governance of the charity and to help formulate the vision for the future.

Before you apply

Please apply through Reach in the first instance. Interviews will be in person at a convenient location, representatives from the board of trustees will be present with the Clerk.
