Trustee (safeguarding)
Volunteer role, part-time - unpaid
The Creative Living Centre ('CLC') is a forward-thinking mental health charity based in Prestwich, Greater Manchester, and is making a big difference to its members/service users. We are now recruiting a trustee to the Board of Trustees with specific responsibility for safeguarding.
Key responsibilities
As well as fulfilling the normal role of trustee in a charity, specific responsibilities include giving guidance to the Board on the topic of safeguarding and being available to staff members for advice in relation to safeguarding.
Skills and experience required for the role
Candidates should have experience of operating as a safeguarding lead in a relevant setting and, ideally, should have some awareness of the safeguarding issues that arise in relation to adult mental health.
Prior experience or understanding of the legal responsibilities of a Trustee and the needs of mental health service users is helpful for this role but not absolutely essential. You will be able to demonstrate a commitment to the CLC and its vision, mission and values.
We're keen to hear from you even if you don't fit all of the criteria for the role.
Commitment
The Board of Trustees meets monthly, however it is important that trustees are visible within the CLC. For instance it is expected that you will visit the CLC from time to time in order to develop an understanding of the charity and how it operates. Attendance at ad-hoc meetings and regular contact via email is also helpful. Please note, this role is not paid and background checks etc. will be required.
Application Instructions
To apply, please submit your CV together with a covering letter which outlines the reasons for your application to admin@cretivelivingcentre.org.uk
