Trustees

Welcome to the Trustee Page of My Sisters Place!

As a local charity supporting local victims of domestic abuse, we are driven by a shared vision of making a positive impact in people’s lives. At the heart of our organisation, alongside the wonderful staff team, we have a dedicated team of Trustees who play a crucial role in shaping our strategy, ensuring our mission is fulfilled, and guiding us towards a brighter future.

What is a Charity Trustee? A Charity Trustee is an individual who volunteers their time, skills, and expertise to provide leadership and governance for our organisation. Trustees are responsible for making strategic decisions, setting objectives, overseeing the charity’s activities, and ensuring compliance with legal and ethical obligations. They act as custodians of our charity, safeguarding its values and ensuring it remains true to its purpose.

Why Become a Charity Trustee? Becoming a Charity Trustee offers a unique opportunity to make a lasting difference in your community. It is a chance to contribute your skills, knowledge, and experience to a cause that resonates with your values.

Being a Charity Trustee also provides a valuable personal and professional development opportunity. It allows you to gain new skills, broaden your network, and enhance your understanding of governance, leadership, and the charitable sector. The role of a Trustee offers a chance to collaborate with like-minded individuals who share your passion for making a positive impact, fostering relationships that can enrich both your personal and professional life.
