A "not for profit" charity looking for volunteer Trustees to join our Board
We are looking for two Trustees to participate in setting the long-term strategy of the Trust and to oversee the Trust's activities.
Valley trust has been successfully providing a counselling service in Surrey since 1985, and in 1994 that service was extended to schools.
Counselling in schools is a cost effective way of making counselling available and accessible to pupils who may be experiencing emotional distress and/or behavioural problems. Bereavement, loss, family and peer relationship difficulties, anxiety, bullying and other issues can lead to deterioration in a pupil’s behaviour or ability to function effectively in school.
Today our work is exclusively in schools in Surrey, Hampshire, Middlesex and Berkshire both in the public and private sector. In the academic year 2023/24 we provided 12,000 hours of 1:1 face to face counselling to students aged between 4 and 18.
The Trustee Board meets approximately five times a year in Guildford, together with our Manager and Accountant.
We are looking for members of the local community with business and managerial experience and a commitment to the aims and objectives of the Valley Trust.
Your involvement and commitment will ensure we continue to provide and extend our range of much-needed support and services to children and young people.
Please contact us and we will arrange a time to have a call/zoom in the first instance
