“They have busy personal and professional lives but are passionate about what we do and want to make a difference” – national Trustees’ Week is a golden opportunity to celebrate the contribution of EACH’s Board of Trustees

Volunteer trustees have been thanked for their time, effort and commitment during a national awareness week marking their vast contribution.

Trustees’ Week begins today and runs until Friday, celebrating the achievements of nearly one million people who take on the role for charities across the UK.

East Anglia’s Children’s Hospices (EACH) is among the organisations to benefit and be governed by a strong, dedicated board of professionals.

Drawn from a variety of backgrounds, they meet quarterly and are responsible for driving the charity forward.

They set its strategic direction, and there are four committees – clinical governance, finance and income generation, audit, risk and compliance and human resources.

“We’re blessed to have a very experienced Board of Trustees, with considerable and varied professional background and expertise,” said EACH’s Chair of Trustees, Brad McLean.

“Between them, they have extensive clinical, commercial, finance and business expertise, as well as lived family experience.

“They have busy personal and professional lives but are passionate about what we do and want to make a difference.

“Six new trustees have joined us in the last year, and board members were highly active in supporting fundraising events, attending internal and external meetings and spending time with employees.

“It’s a voluntary role and a huge commitment, and our huge appreciation obviously applies all year round.

“However, that’s especially true during Trustees’ Week. It’s the perfect opportunity to say thank you and showcase the great work they do.”

Brad is joined by ten others on EACH’s Board of Trustees – Emma Deterding, Mark Dyke, Iain Jamie, Anna Lipp, Ann Marie Lloyd, Nicky Richardson, Shaun Savory, Chris Schwer, Caroline Steggles and Henry Wright.

To shine a light on their contribution, EACH will be releasing two special features this week, including one on Caroline, who, together with husband Sam, runs their family business, The Goat Shed, just west of Norfolk.

The other will be on Nicky, who is Village Director at Center Parcs’ Elveden Forest and joined the board in September.
