Trustees

Our foundation trustees are incredibly valuable to us; they bring intuitive knowledge and understanding of community issues, they have a wealth of experience working with many different donors from all walks of life, and they provide the assurance of robust, efficient and compliant governance, finance and management.

Hey there, couldn’t help noticing you’re using Internet Explorer

That’s great and all, and we commend you for pushing through with it. Unfortunately we no longer offer support for IE; it hasn’t received a major update since 2015 and Microsoft are dropping support for it later in the year.

If you’re using Windows 10 and want to stick with a built in browser, please consider switching to Edge. Or, if you really want to enjoy the internet properly we strongly recommend downloading Google Chrome here.
