Become a trustee

Citizens Advice LeicesterShire is an independent and local non-profit organisation. Our purpose is “Sharing knowledge to transform lives”. By listening to the needs of our communities and clients, we act to provide accessible, high-quality information, advice and education to anyone who needs it. We empower individuals with the tools and support they need to build resilience and thrive. By working in partnership with national and local organisations, we’re able to advocate for a fairer society, amplifying the voices of those often unheard. We demonstrate and uphold our values: we care, we help, we excel and we challenge to achieve positive outcomes for the people we help. Last year we supported over 31,000 people across Leicester and Leicestershire, securing them £14 million in additional income.

We are looking for trustees to join our board. As a trustee, you’ll help us:

*Set our strategy and direction
*Ensure we’re financially sustainable
*Monitor our performance and impact
*Make sure we’re meeting the needs of our community

This is a voluntary role, but the rewards are invaluable:

*Make a different in your community
*Develop your skills, experience and gain valuable insight in the non-profit sector
*Work in a supportive and friendly environment with a dedicated team of staff and volunteers
*Be part of something bigger than yourself and help build a more resilient community in LeicesterShire

We’ll cover your expenses: we value your time and commitment and want to ensure serving as a trustee is accessible to everyone.
