We’re looking for passionate and committed individuals who believe in the work that we do, and who want to play a part in our future strategic development. We are also specifically looking for individuals with experience in the areas of legal, secretariat or safeguarding. You do not need to have been a Trustee before or have previous Board experience. We need people who are willing to devote the necessary time and effort to support the work of Jigsaw4u, that have an ability to think creatively and are happy to provide views. We are very lucky to have a Board of varied backgrounds, experience and skill sets and we are looking to add further skill sets and replace those of Trustees who leave when their terms come to an end. It is important that individuals have an understanding and acceptance of the legal duties, responsibilities and liability of being a Trustee (we can provide further information on those duties and responsibilities). We particularly welcome applications from a diverse range of ages and backgrounds in order to reflect the diverse nature of our beneficiaries. The young people we work with come from a broad range of backgrounds, including Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic backgrounds, young people with mental or physical disabilities, or those experiencing complex issues and low levels of agency. To best support all the people we work with, our Trustees need to come from a wide range of ages and backgrounds themselves.

Trusteeship with Jisgaw4u offers the opportunity: • To use your knowledge and experience to make a difference in the community. • To gain Governance and finance experience and learn new skills. • For personal growth and career development. • To expand your network and work alongside people from a wide variety of professional and personal backgrounds.

The Board meets five times a year as well as an annual away day and ad-hoc meetings when necessary. Individual Trustees also often take responsibility for specific aspects of Board and organisational priorities.
