Federation Trustees provide the link between the NFWI and the WIs in their federation. Trustees are jointly responsible for running the federation, although they can delegate certain responsibilities. They must also make sure the WIs in their region follow the guidelines of the Charity Commission.
Trustees are responsible for:
- passing on information from the NFWI to members
- setting the federation’s budget and overseeing its finances
- attending meetings (such as Board meetings, sub-committee meetings etc.) and engaging in discussion, debate and voting
- issuing an annual report and accounts
- organising events and activities for members
Interested in becoming a Trustee?
If you would be interested in becoming a Trustee, please contact the office for further information. We would be delighted for you to join our Board of Trustees.
A Trustee must be a member of a WI within our Federation. WI’s elect Trustees prior to the Annual Federation Day meeting.
