The Greenfield Valley looks for new trustees

The Greenfield Valley Trust is recruiting new trustees to join the current board, which is responsible for developing ideas for the future of the Greenfield Valley.

The Trust is a charity that works with Flintshire County Council, the Valley’s owner. Together they aim to ensure that the valley is a safe, attractive and welcoming place for local people and visitors. They work to provide attractions and events that people find interesting and enjoyable and they protect and explain the Valley’s history.

Brenda Harvey, Chair of the Greenfield Valley Trust, said ‘We have recently embarked on delivering our ten-year plan and we are sure that there are many people in the region who could help.  Lots of people already volunteer with us bringing their specialist skills and we are now advertising this specific opportunity for new trustees.  We have up to six vacancies on the Trust Board and are looking for people with knowledge and experience of finance, marketing and promotion, tourism, the law, heritage services or fundraising to come and join us. Trustee roles at the Valley Trust are unpaid but interesting and rewarding.’

The role of the trustees is to provide direction and work with other organisations to make sure that, whilst catering for the needs of the local community and visitors, the Valley is financially sustainable.  As a charity the Trust must abide by the rules set by the charity commission.
