Trustee with legal experience
Marble Hill Playcentres
Trustee preferably with legal experience, to help strengthen our governance.
Join our adventure! We have a vacancy for a trustee preferably with legal experience and used to dealing with contracts. However, we will appoint trustees mainly on the basis of a shared passion to protect the Playcentres for future generations. Planning and communicating is an important part of your role, with the support of other Trustees. We all meet monthly in Twickenham on a Tuesday evening, and get involved at the playground when time allows.
