Daring to Dream is on the search for new trustees.
Could this be the opportunity for you?
To join the Board of Daring to Dream and be part of leading real change across Wales.
Illness impacts on us all – in every family, community and workplace.
Illness creates emotional as well as clinical needs and care.
Daring to Dream is the Emotional (not mental) Health Charity.
Emotional Health is the key lynchpin that:
a) Supports living well with illness and
b) Acts as a buffer to prevent mental illnesses
Daring to Dream supports the emotional health of the 1.2 million people in Wales living with illness – by making ‘Spaces to Talk’.
The trustees are taking the most challenging step in any organisation’s journey
They are determined to develop Daring to Dream from being an organisation totally driven by a passionate and dedicated founder to delivery by a professional team, supported & led strategically by its board.
The trustees are leading two key areas of development in order to build the resilience and sustainability of the charity:
a. A significant reset of the board with additional trustees and separately
b. The recruitment of a team of freelancers to build an operational delivery team
Barbara – the charity’s founder, chair and volunteer CEO will be steadily transitioning away from her roles, remaining as founder trustee, contributing to strategy, and an important spokesperson.
Currently the charity has three trustees (https://daringtodream.wales/our-trustees/); in July, after two terms of office, Dr Nav Masani will step down as trustee and become our lead Clinical Spokesperson and Trustee Emeritus, continuing to support and contribute to the development and impact of the charity.
Daring to Dream offers a great opportunity for someone to really make a difference.
