The South London Relief in Sickness Fund is a charity that gives small one-off grants to individuals living in Lambeth and Wandsworth who have a long-term disability or sickness and limited means.
The Fund is currently looking for an additional Trustee to serve on its board. Trustees are volunteers who make sure that the Fund is managed properly and have the chance to make a direct difference to people’s lives. The main responsibility of the Fund’s Trustees is to assess applications. The Trustees meet quarterly in a hybrid meeting environment to consider applications.
Our aim is to have a diverse board of Trustees which reflects the community we serve and is representative of the range of applicants that apply for funding. As such, we welcome applications from people who have experience with mental health services, people with a disability, and people from an ethnic minority background.
Essential requirements:
Useful skills
Grants awarded to individuals greatly help them as they manage their illness and can help people recovering from medical issues to return to a more routine lifestyle.
If you would like to apply to be a Trustee or would like to find out more about the role, please contact the Clerk to the Fund for an application form or for a discussion with a current Trustee:
