Trustee Role with CentrePeace – Paignton
This small charity plays an essential role in their local community, a place where people can find warmth, friendship and help, whatever their age or socio/economic status.
The small staff team and brilliant volunteers are based at their HQ in Paignton where you will also find the café, charity shop and counselling rooms. The charity provides vital support through their counselling services, community workshops, and groups, or simply by accessing the café as a safe and welcoming space or the shop for low cost clothes, toys and household items.
Their reach extends far beyond the immediate vicinity, demonstrating the critical need for their services. While many come from Paignton, some travel from Torquay, and others come from elsewhere across the bay, highlighting CentrePeace as a regional beacon of support. People come to them by personal recommendation from family or friends, with the remainder being effectively signposted by local GP surgeries, social prescribers, mental health agencies, social services, and other community organisations.
I am now working with the charity to support their search for new Trustees. If you a have been inspired by their passion and commitment to their community and would like to be part of their future, I would be delighted to talk to you further about this opportunity.

TRUSTEE OPPORTUNITY – EAST DEVON
The aim of the Citizens Advice movement is to give people the knowledge and confidence they need to find their way forward – whoever they are, and whatever their problem.

The Charity is interested in speaking to potential Trustees who will work with the Board to support the CEO, the staff and volunteer team to continue to deliver their essential and important work. The Board will be lead by an Interim Chair whilst the charity navigates the challenges of possible Local Government restructuring, sustaining funding and meeting an increased need for their services. You would be joining a professional and experienced group of Trustees who are committed to ensuring they can make a difference to as many people as possible.
You will be passionate about social justice and our work and share our values. You will be able to contribute to the trustee board and Leadership Team with financial management, income generation, and supporting workforce development, while promoting the continued growth of an inclusive team culture and developing a trusted community service.
We recognise the positive value of diversity, promote equality and inclusion and challenge discrimination. We welcome and encourage applications from people of all backgrounds.
