Voluntary Action Melton is celebrating being chosen by the Community Organisers programme as one of the next 11 areas to host community organisers. This is an important development for Melton Borough as we are now part of an exciting new national programme directly linked into the Big Society.
We have recruited two Community organisers who will work in local communities to encourage dialogue and create trust, respect and networks to help communities develop their collective power to act together for the common good.

TRUSTEE Recruitment
Voluntary Action Melton is facing up to the challenge of funding cuts by developing a vision and strategy for 2011 to 2014 which enables us to become self sufficient and sustainable by operating as a social enterprise.
To enable this to become a reality we have developed our business plan around the delivery of four key themes:
• Action for older people
• Action for young people
• Action for families with complex needs
• Action to improve the Local Community
As we move towards becoming a social enterprise we are looking to expand our board of trustees and recruit professional people with a knowledge of business and entrepreneurial flair! We would also like to recruit young people.
The main duties will include:
- Attending a monthly evening meeting
- Setting the strategy and policies of Voluntary Action Melton
- Developing our Business
- Monitoring the financial position of Voluntary Action Melton
- Supporting the Chief Officer
- Promoting the work of Voluntary Action Melton
- Acting as an Ambassador for Voluntary Action Melton services
If you are interested in joining our vibrant board of trustees, or you know of someone whom you think would be interested, then do please contact our Chief Officer, Kathy McKinley.
