Why young people should be involved as Trustees
This conversation with Chris Spackman, Vice Chair of DCA, looks at the advantages of involving young people as Trustees of your organisation.
Course Content
Chris Spackman is Vice-Chair of DCA and a strong believer in people being recruited when they are young to serve on Trustees.
We asked Chris:
- Why do you think young people should be involved as Trustees?
- What sort of arrangements does an organisation need to have in place to get the best out of its young trustees?
- What would your advice be for an organisation wanting to recruit young trustees?
Chris' take on these questions covered the benefits for both the young people and the organisation and what an organisation needs to think about before going down this route.
