We know that getting the best Trustees for your organisation can be a critical factor in your organisation developing in the best way. And we also know that it is really difficult to recruit Trustees. Please join us for three sessions that we have designed to support you to recruit the brilliant Trustees you need.
These sessions will share best practice in Trustee Recruitment and top tips to get you started. We will introduce 2 or 3 tools per session for you to try immediately and apply as soon as possible to kick start your Trustee recruitment.
The course is made up of 3 one hour sessions, free for VCSE and non-profits. After each one hour session the facilitator will stay online for a further 30 minutes for informal networking and questions.
