Hands Up For Trustees Help us understand how we can help you recruit more skilled trustees.
Hands Up for Trustees in North Yorkshire is a Joint Campaign of Community First Yorkshire and Reach Volunteering, the national charity that connects charities and not-for-profits with skilled and experienced volunteers. Many charities in North Yorkshire tell us they often struggle to recruit and retain skilled trustees. We want to understand the experiences of North Yorkshire charities better so we can shape our campaign for 2018. Please complete the survey below before 31 January 2018 to help inform our campaign. Each charity that completes the survey will be entered into a draw and have the opportunity to win a free governance review worth £600 in 2018.
Our Hands up For Trustees in North Yorkshire campaign aims to:
• increase public awareness and understanding of the role and value of charity trustees. • improve people’s access to becoming a trustee within their communities of place, interest and character • raise the capacity and confidence of charities to recruit, induct, retain and develop trustees • develop productive relationships between organisations to help make this happen • celebrate the difference trustees make in North Yorkshire
The Campaign will run from Trustees Week in November 2017 to Volunteers Week in June 2018.
Over the next few months we will also be delivering a range of activities to help organisations recruit, develop and celebrate the difference that their Trustees make in North Yorkshire Communities.
With thanks to Getting on Board for allowing us access to their original survey that informed their research into Recruiting Trustees (May 2017).
