Help Us Celebrate 25 Years – Join the Board!

The Elders Council of Newcastle is looking for new Trustees to help guide us through our silver anniversary year and beyond. Soon, we will be celebrating 25 years of making a difference, and we need people like you to help us continue our important work.

What We’re Looking For:

· People who are 50+ and living or working in Newcastle

· No special qualifications needed – just a passion for helping others.

· If you’ve got ideas, skills, or experience in any area (governance, fundraising, community work, digital skills, communications etc.), we want to hear from you.

· A commitment to making our city more inclusive and age friendly.

Join us and help make a lasting impact in Newcastle for years to come!

• Previous experience of being a trustee of a voluntary organisation is not essential as training and support will be given
• We are particularly looking for people with experience in community development, fundraising, project management and communications and / or with knowledge of key topics which are current priorities for the Elders Council e.g. housing; transport; personal care.
