Board Trustee

The role of the Board is to safeguard and promote the values and mission of the Centre, to determine the strategy and structure of the Centre, to ensure the Centre operates in an effective, responsible and accountable manner and to ensure the effective functioning of the board.
DGRC&SASC work is split into governance, management and operational functions.

Governance Definition: the function carried out by the governing body [‘The Trustees’], having responsibility for decision-making in the areas of overall direction, policy, legal and financial probity, and employment.

Operational Definition: The work of the organisation as it relates to the service users and beneficiaries, and usually carried out by staff and volunteers, Members of the governing body may – in small organisations- also contribute to the operational duties as operational volunteers or sub-group members.


Management Definition: delegation of decision-making to senior staff or sub-groups, with the function of setting and monitoring the work of the staff: where actions and decisions are within policy frameworks agreed by the board.


This function is, therefore, the interface between the 2 other levels.


Only women need apply under Schedule 9, Part 1 of the Equality Act 2010
