Trustee Speed Matching Event

The annual Trustee Speed Matching event is for any member who is interested in recruiting new or additional trustees to their board.

We know our members recognise that trustees play a vital role in the strategic management of their charity.  We also know that boards benefit greatly from having a more diverse range of people, particularly from under-represented groups such as younger people and those with a wide range of backgrounds and skills.

This year’s event takes place at The Jewish Museum on Wednesday, 6^th November.
