Our Trustees
We are pleased to have a Board of Trustees with a diverse range of skills and experience leading SILC. As a user-led organisation, many of our Trustees have personal experience of living with disability or having a caring role and use, or have used, our services.
This understanding helps ensure that we keep our clients’ needs at the forefront of our strategic planning and service delivery. We are grateful for their commitment to the organisation and to our clients.

Why volunteer as a Trustee
A trustee helps to lead an organisation, decides how it should be run and is responsible for making sure that it is doing what it was set up to do. Being a trustee means making decisions that will genuinely impact on people’s lives.
Our full Board meets 6 times each year and, depending on the need, some sub-committees also meet in-between these times to look at particular matters in more depth.
Your skills and experience can make a real difference to what we do and in return you will have the opportunity to learn more about running a charity and to pick up new skills from your co-trustees. Read our Trustee FAQs for more details and we will post Trustee vacancies when they come up.
