Volunteer Clinical Trustee

Hope House Children’s Hospices - Volunteer Clinical Trustee Opportunity
We are looking for a new Clinical Trustee to help us deliver our purpose - to give every local child with a life-threatening condition and their family access to professional care and improve their quality of life from the point of diagnosis.
It is our mission to achieve our purpose by:
· Providing professional care and support
· Reaching every child with a life-threatening condition as soon as possible to give their families informed choices about accessing our services; and
· Raising the money we need and targeting those resources in the best way to make the biggest impact.
With a dedicated team of almost 300 staff and more than 600 volunteers, we support over 650 families every year by providing respite care, antenatal and neonatal support, end of life care and immediate care after death, sibling support, and counselling and bereavement support from our two hospices based in Oswestry (Shropshire) and Conwy (North Wales).
As a Trustee, you will play a vital role in making sure our charity is well run in the interests of the children and families we are here to support. You will also ensure we deliver our purpose by setting the strategic direction, managing the performance, and having responsibility for the governance of Hope House Children’s Hospices.
Ideally you will be:
· An experienced medical or nursing professional, with a background in general practice, obstetrics, paediatric care, or palliative care
· Motivated to help the charity deliver its purpose most effectively and for public benefit
· Motivated to actively support the charity to raise the money it needs
· Committed to good governance; to follow the Trustee’s Code of Practice and adopted principles of the Charity Governance Code at all times and to uphold the legal responsibilities of trustees
· Committed to serving a minimum three-year term as a trustee and to giving sufficient time to carry out your responsibilities effectively, including actively participating in face to face board and committee meetings (normally held in our Shropshire hospice)
· Reflect the charity’s values in your way of working and behaviour
Ready to apply:
If you are interested in joining the team and becoming our new trustee we would love to hear from you. Please send your CV, together with a cover letter setting out why you would like to join our Bboard and outlining how you meet the requirements for the role to HR@hopehouse.org.uk
