Home-Start Dundee is managed by a voluntary
Board of Trustees made up of local people who are interested
in the aims of Home-Start, together with representatives
from Social Work, Health Visiting, Early Years and Childcare
Partnership.
Our Trustees are also volunteers and without them Home-Start
Dundee could not function and families would not get the
support they need.
Being a Trustee is rewarding and gives many chances for
personal development and also the chance to give something
back to your local community. Our Trustees come from all
walks of life, bringing their experience and individual
skills.
You don’t need special qualifications to be a Trustee,
but the following skills are important:-
- Common sense
- An ability to work as part of a team
- An understanding of the pressures facing parents
today
- A genuine interest in supporting parents in Dundee |
Other skills, although not necessary, would be of use are:-
- Business skills
- Personnel management
- Finance
- Fundraising |
The Board of Trustees is responsible for:-
- Making charity effective
- Providing overall direction
- Maintaining sound management of funds |
Their job is to ensure that the resources in the charity
are used effectively to further the objects of Home-Start
Dundee and for the purpose which they were given.
To get further information or to become a member of the
Board of Trustees please contact
