You will need to have excellent communication and interpersonal skills and an empathy with Hospice philosophy is essential.
Successful applicants will have an induction and will start as an Associate Trustee for a six-month period.

Candidates who would like to become a full Trustee after the initial six-month period as an Associate Trustee would join the board as a voting member and attend four board meetings per annum as well as a Trustee meet the team walkaround once a year.
Trustees are encouraged to attend fundraising events throughout the year. In return you will be able to share your experience and expertise in driving forward a progressive charity and make a real contribution.
