We're looking for a Trustee to join our growing charity - Families Out Loud!
What is Families Out Loud (FOL)?
Families Out Loud is a small and growing charity, based in Wiltshire, which is run by a group of people who care about family addiction. We're here to support those affected by other people's addiction, by enabling people to speak out, without judgement. If you have lived experience of, or an interest in our cause, we'd love to hear from you!
About the Role:
As a Families Out Loud Trustee, you will share our passion of supporting families affected by someone else's drug or alcohol use. You will be committed to the Purpose, Vision and Values of Families Out Loud, working with the board to deliver the charity's 5-year strategic plan. We're committed to helping clients rebuild their lives, and to reducing stigma so they can feel confident to speak freely about their own experiences. As a Trustee, you will support this mission by reviewing the work we do on a regular basis, understanding that everything we do is for the public benefit, and within the charity's purpose. You will work collaboratively with the other Trustees to effectively manage resources, and to ensure compliance with charity law and other legal requirements.
This is a voluntary position, mainly working from home on an ad-hoc basis. You will be required to attend monthly Trustee meetings which are currently held virtually. Occasionally you may be required to attend in-person meetings in different locations across Wiltshire.
What are we looking for?
For this position, we're looking for someone based near Salisbury who can help us facilitate growth in our local area. Ideally, you'll have a deep understanding of our community and its unique needs, bringing strong connections within the area. You'll support the charity to leverage local networks and form lasting relationships, secure funding, and ultimately enhance our charity's mission. Your reputation and familiarity with the Salisbury area will help build trust and strengthen our charity's impact on the community. You'll need strong written and verbal communication skills and will be able to work as part of a team to make collective decisions. You should be able to think analytically, with a problem-solving approach. Alongside this, due to the nature of the role, you should be able to manage your own time effectively and be well organised.
