Join Bridgwater Foodbank as a Trustee – Make a Real Impact!

Tuesday 11th February, 2025

📢 We’re Looking for Passionate Trustees! 📢

Bridgwater Foodbank is seeking dedicated individuals to join our Board of Trustees. Each year, we welcome new trustees to bring fresh perspectives and expertise to our team. As we approach our March meeting, we are looking for local business leaders, charity professionals, or those with town council experience who can actively contribute to our mission of supporting those in crisis across our community.

What Does a Trustee Do?

As a trustee, you will:
✔️ Help shape the strategic direction of Bridgwater Foodbank.
✔️ Ensure the charity remains financially sustainable and well-governed.
✔️ Provide insight and guidance based on your area of expertise.
✔️ Support our team in delivering vital services to those in need.

This is a voluntary role that typically involves attending trustee meetings and supporting key initiatives. No prior trustee experience is required – just a commitment to making a difference!
