More about the SPAB Board:

Under charity law, becoming a trustee means having a legal responsibility for governing the SPAB and delegating management responsibility to the director and staff. Trustees with their individual expertise make collective decisions on the directions of the charity.

Level of commitment:

For this vacancy, the serving term is 3 years, with the possibility to be reco-opted again for another 3 years, every member is required to step down for a year after 2 consecutive terms. Our Board of Trustees meet 5 times a year: February, May, July, September and December. Meetings usually take place on a Tuesday afternoon between 2pm-4.30pm. Each meeting could be held in-person only, hybrid, or where acceptable, online, depending on the subject matter of the meeting. Travel expenses are available for attending in person meetings. Meeting preparation usually requires each trustee to read approximately 20+ documents.

Aside from the above, there might be email exchanges from time to time on matters including regulatory body record updates( we would need consent from you for us to pass on your personal info or require you to sign declaration forms for audit purposes) or urgent matter from the Director of the SPAB, for Board's approval regarding final decisions on major issues

We are looking to recruit enthusiastic and passionate people, with diverse experiences, from across the UK to develop our Board of Trustees and support this expansion

AVUK are looking for 3 new trustees, we are keen to hear from passionate, strategic minded individuals with skills they feel may be of benefit to the board.

Trustees are the people who make the top-level decisions for our charity. Our Board includes people with experience of MS, and skills in governing our operations.

We’d expect new trustees to have empathy with our cause and our beneficiaries, but you don’t necessarily need full knowledge or experience of MS.

Similarly, you don’t necessarily need prior experience of charity trusteeship, as support and full induction will be provided, plus specialist support as a new trustee including access to external training.

What you will need is the ability to think strategically and plan long-term; you’ll also need to be able to work collectively with other Board members. We’re looking for trustees to bring new ideas, skills and abilities, particularly in marketing/communications, or income-generation, or people management, or even with knowledge of Health and Social Care systems; but if you don’t have these, we’re still interested in you!

Working alongside our Sabbatical Officers and Student Trustees we are looking to bring specific skills and experience to the Board to strengthen the Unions governance with the ambition to contribute and make a difference for the benefit of our students.

Our External trustees help provide continuity and expertise to our beneficiary-led board, and ensure our students are empowered to challenge and shape their organisation. External Trustees are part mentor, part advisor and part ambassador for our organisation.
