Become our next chair and help us meet our strategic aims and objectives

Trustee / Committee volunteer needed for Parents and Children Together (PACT) in RG1

PACT (Parents and Children Together) helps hundreds of families every year through outstanding adoption and award-winning therapeutic support and inspirational community projects across London and the south of England. We are one of the UK’s leading independent adoption agencies. Our mission is to provide adoption and community services to vulnerable children, women and families.

We are looking for someone who shares our passion for making a difference to the lives of children and families and has experience in a senior executive role in the corporate world or the public sector. Using your strong leadership skills and experience of charity governance you will steer the Board in meeting the charity’s strategic aims and objectives and ensure the proper governance of the charity.

As our Head office is in Reading ideally you will be based in the Thames Valley and will be able to commit an average of 2-3 days per month of your time. It is a voluntary role although travel expenses may be claimed.

We look forward to hearing from you.
