Manchester Trustee Virtual Network

The Greater Manchester Trustees Network is for people who are trustees or committee members of voluntary and community organisations that work in Greater Manchester.

• Raise and discuss issues and concerns relating to trusteeship and governance in the voluntary sector
• Support trustees by providing information on policy and good practice and informing them of the resources available to trustees
• Create a context of ongoing development and support

The Network is maintained through e-mail contact and occasional meetings, which are usually held in the early evening at the St Thomas Centre in the Ardwick district of Manchester.

If you are a trustee of a voluntary or community organisation in Greater Manchester and would like to join the Network, please contact: David Sutcliffe, 0161 277 1011, david.sutcliffe@gmcvo.org.uk
