Voluntary Action Sheffield (VAS) has provided support and leadership for the voluntary sector in Sheffield for over 90 years, and now they’re looking for up to four new trustees to join their board.
VAS focus on community impact, influence decision makers and champion volunteering as a force for positive action.
Their vision is for people to work together to make a vital and growing contribution to the quality of life in all Sheffield’s communities.
Their mission is to support the development of voluntary and community action in a professional way, so it is sustainable and brings about positive social change.
Voluntary Action Sheffield is governed and led by a board of trustees, who are responsible for ensuring that VAS fulfill their purpose, use their resources to best effect and comply with the law. It is this board of trustees that VAS are looking to add up to four new members to. More information about the current board members can be found on the VAS meet the board page.
VAS is hoping to strengthen and diversify their board and are keen to appoint people who are actively involved with Sheffield’s voluntary and community sector or social enterprise sector. They would particularly welcome applicants who have a disability and/or who are from Black, Asian or Minority Ethnic groups.
