Age UK Sheffield Trustee
Age UK Sheffield supports older people to live independently, with better health, financial security and strong social connections. As a Trustee, you will help guide the charity’s strategy, ensure good governance, and support long-term sustainability. The role involves working with the Board and leadership team to make key decisions, provide constructive challenge, and act as an ambassador for the organisation. Trustees contribute their skills and experience at a strategic level rather than day-to-day operations. Previous trustee experience is helpful but not essential — what matters most is a commitment to improving the lives of older people and a willingness to share your expertise and perspective. • Please complete our Trustee application form and return it to recruitment@ageuksheffield.org.uk or call 0114 250 2850
