Trustees’ Week 2024

Written by Liz Magill, Community Development Project Manager, Connect

4-8 November marks Trustees’ Week 2024, a time to celebrate nearly one million charity trustees across the UK who volunteer their time, strategic skills and experience to help charities thrive.

Since 2017, ELBA’s BoardBuilders Programme has placed over 420 trustees in east London and Islington charities, making a long lasting impact in the community. As the programme grows, we continue to support our network of trustees with quarterly newsletters and events.

To celebrate Trustees’ Week, ELBA recently hosted a BoardBuilders alumni networking event. Trustees joined in roundtable discussions on the seven principles of good charity governance and connected informally, sharing their insights and experiences.

We’re grateful for the commitment of all charity trustees and look forward to more events that strengthen these vital connections. If you are interested in learning more about trusteeship and current opportunities, please reach out to boardmatch@elba-1.org.uk.
