Become a Trustee
Becoming a trustee of YMCA Norfolk is a fantastic opportunity to make a difference.
Our team of trustees bring their skills, experience, and passion to enable YMCA Norfolk to fulfil our mission of transforming young lives. Each trustee their brings unique insights enabling them to provide support and scrutiny to steward the work of YMCA Norfolk.
It is an exciting time for YMCA Norfolk as the charity increases both the number of young people we serve and develops new services to fund our work. We have an engaged and supportive team of trustees who have a strong working relationship with the CEO and Executive team.
We are looking for a diverse range of people to join our Board. We desire to become more representative of the communities we serve and are actively seeking to involve a broader range of people with different life experiences.
Over the years these have been provided by young professionals, senior managers, business owners
and people who have retired but are looking to contribute their experience. We are also partnering with One YMCA to offer the “Get On Board” Young Trustee Programme, designed to equip young people aged 18-30 with the knowledge, skills and confidence to become trustees.
