Could you help shape the future of YOU?
Working at YOU remains an absolute privilege. Even after three years with the organisation, I continue to be inspired daily by the commitment, compassion and dedication of our staff and volunteers, as well as the resilience, strengths and potential of the clients and communities we work alongside.
Over the past 40+ years, YOU has grown into a leading charity supporting people across the South of England to live safe, independent, and healthy lives. Our services span a broad range of areas. These include domestic abuse and stalking support, advice services, learning disability and mental health support, health and wellbeing programmes, and specialist training.
Our growth and success have been guided by an exceptional Board of Trustees. These dedicated volunteers bring passion, expertise, and a shared commitment to making a positive difference in the lives of others. They play a vital role in ensuring the charity remains focused on its mission, values, and future development.
We are currently seeking new Trustees to join our Board. Could this be you?
Becoming a Trustee is both rewarding and enriching. It offers an opportunity to contribute your skills and experience while developing new ones while working alongside a diverse group of talented and committed individuals. Most importantly, it gives you the chance to help create meaningful change for the people and communities we serve.
Our Board brings together people with a range of professional expertise and lived experiences, all united by a commitment to advancing our charitable ambitions. Trustees attend around ten Board meetings each year and have opportunities to visit services, attend events, and hear directly from clients and families about the impact of our work.
This is an exciting time to join YOU. As we look ahead to the next five years, we are focused on delivering our strategic vision, building on our achievements, including our Outstanding CQC rating for caring, and continuing to provide the highest-quality services for those who rely on us.
In return for your time and commitment, you'll find a welcoming, supportive, and stimulating environment where you can make a genuine difference while growing personally and professionally.
If you would like to learn more about becoming a Trustee at YOU, please look at the information leaflet. I'd also be delighted to have an informal conversation about the role, feel free to contact me directly or email us for more information.
