Trustee voluntary vacancy

Written By Callum Fairhurst

We’re on a mission to make sure every bereaved sibling feels seen, heard and supported, can you help us?

Sibling Support is on the search for new trustees to join the board of a small, but growing, charity as we move into our growth stage.

About the charity

Every year around 4,000 young people die in the UK before they’ve had a chance to live their lives to the fullest. Beside many of those is a sibling. 

We believe that siblings are overlooked when it comes to grief, so we help them, and those around them, navigate their way through tough times.

From specially designed resources, where thousands are ordered every year, to training, advice and information. Check out our website (www.siblingsupport.co.uk) to see more. 

We are looking for Trustees with one or more of the following experiences/backgrounds: 

  • Finance - to become our treasurer

  • Prior trustee experience 

  • Worked with people who are grieving

  • Legal experience

  • Organisational management and leadership

How you can help us:

  • Join four board meetings every year, two in person, two virtually. The meetings are not during work hours. More meetings for those that choose to join sub committees.

  • Offer ad-hoc support and advice.

  • Use your skills and/or network to help the charity and its beneficiaries.

How to express interest + other information: 

For further information, or if you want to arrange a discussion, please email Callum and Nick on callum@siblingsupport.co.uk and nick@siblingsupport.co.uk, they’d love to chat!
