Age UK Isle Of Wight Opens Applications For New Trustees

Age UK Isle of Wight is searching for new Trustees to help shape its strategic direction and priorities.

The community charity is seeking those who have the desire to improve the lives of older people and are looking for a new challenge.

The independent charity has been supporting older Islanders since 1973 and is held in high regard by the communities it serves, as well as by local health and social care decision makers.

Trustees play a pivotal part in the governance, leadership and long-term planning of the charity and an application form is now available for those interested in the post.

Sheila Evans, chair of trustees for Age UK Isle of Wight, said:

“Becoming a Trustee and helping to support our older Island community to ensure they can live their best independent life is time well spent and personally rewarding.

"We are individuals working as a team drawing upon our combined experience and skills, and our ability to take sound, challenging decisions can generate positive outcomes for the wellbeing of the charity.”

An application pack containing full details can be found on the charity’s website.
