We are seeking committed and enthusiastic Trustees to join our Board.
Our Trust is a long-established charity providing safe, affordable and supportive accommodation for older people in need of assistance across the Stockport area. Battersby Court consists of 20 semi-detached, one-bedroom bungalows for both single residents and couples, set within a peaceful location with attractive, well-maintained gardens.
As a Trustee, you will help shape the future of the charity, ensuring we continue to provide high-quality housing and a strong sense of community where residents can live independently and well for longer.
We are particularly interested in hearing from people who:
- care about supporting older people and strengthening local communities
- have sound judgement and are confident contributing to discussion and decision-making
- can work effectively as part of a collaborative Board
- are committed to good governance and the values of the charity sector
We would especially welcome applicants with experience in one or more of the following areas:
- finance, accountancy, or strong financial oversight
- legal knowledge or professional legal expertise
- property, housing, or asset management
- charity governance or strategic leadership
This is a voluntary role, although reasonable expenses will be reimbursed.
The Board meets a minimum of three times each year, offering an excellent opportunity to use your skills, knowledge and experience to make a meaningful difference to the lives of older people in our community.
If you believe you could contribute and would like to find out more, we would be delighted to hear from you. Please contact the Clerk for further information.
