Our Board of Directors is the management board of Age UK Croydon. It is responsible for legal, financial and personnel aspects of the organisation, for planning and deciding on policies and stategies. All of the Board members are volunteers. Directors of Age UK Croydon form part of the Volunteer body and fulfill the legal requirements of the organisation.
As a company limited by guarantee we submit reports to Companies House and as a charity we must comply with the regulations of the Charity Commissioners. These two bodies call the organisation to account in financial and management terms to ensure that appropriate work is carried out.
An Annual Report is prepared for our Annual General Meeting each year setting out the activities of the organisation and the audited balance sheet for the year. All staff and volunteers who have worked with us for the relevant year are listed and successes are celebrated.
There are obviously times when we require new members of the Board. Any vacancies are displayed in the Volunteering section of this website.
Join the Board of Directors
Elections are held annually in the Autumn at the Annual General Meeting, which usually takes place at the Croydon Town Hall. You will be especially welcome if you have marketing, fundraising, PR or IT skills; if you represent the interests of a minority ethnic group, or have the interests of older people at heart.
