Are you a young deaf person? Do you want to:
- Expand your CV and develop your skills as a leader of the future?
- Gain experience in a boardroom environment without the risk or legal responsibility of being a Trustee?
By joining the SignHealth Trustee Shadow Scheme in 2020, you’ll get the opportunity to:
- Observe board meetings and learn about charity leadership
- Spend time with the Chief Executive and senior managers to learn how a charity works.
- Be ‘buddied up’ with an existing SignHealth trustee to talk about what being a trustee means and the key responsibilities/duties.
Why choose SignHealth?
- SignHealth exists to improve Deaf people’s health and wellbeing.
- We are proud to be deaf-led and want to make sure more young deaf people have the chance to develop the skills to be successful leaders of the future.
- We are particularly keen to support young deaf people from black, Asian and minority ethnic coummunities onto the scheme.
- The scheme is free and we will cover your travel costs.
