Make a Difference as a Trustee for a Local Charity

The Richmond CVS Trustee Recruitment Evening returns this October, with support from Russell-Cooke solicitors.

As part of Richmond CVS' support for local voluntary and community organisations, this annual information and matching event is for anyone aged 18+ who is interested in learning about volunteering in the strategic role of a trustee.

Trustees are key to the success of any organisation and can come from all kinds of backgrounds, with all kinds of skills. If you've been looking for a really valuable way to 'give back' with your professional experience, trusteeship could be for you. This event is a brilliant way to hear what it can offer from people already in the role, and by talking directly to organisations about their work and opportunities.

A great range of 30+ good causes will be under one roof for one night only, plus information will be available about many others - including those working in areas such as advice, arts, care, children, disability, health, education, history, heritage, neighbourhood support.

The event is organised by the Richmond Volunteer Service, a team within Richmond CVS, who are here to guide you in learning about local groups that could be looking for the skills you offer.

It is again supported by Russell-Cooke - a leading top 100 legal firm which works with commercial, not-for-profit and private clients.

Registration for the event is highly encouraged. Your free ticket includes access to a scheduled presentation session in the early part of the evening, informal talks with stallholders at your leisure, and a glass of wine or soft drink to help you enjoy yourself! You can select a preferred time for the presentation when you book, if you'd like to, and you can join as little or as much of the evening as is convenient for you.

If you're passing and decide to drop-in on the day, you'll be equally warmly welcomed.
