Queenscourt Hospice, a beacon of care and compassion in West Lancashire, Southport, and Formby, is continuing to embark on its journey of growth and impact.
To support this journey, the hospice has announced it is extending an invitation to dedicated individuals from the local community to express an interest in becoming integral members of its esteemed Board of Trustees.
Some of the hospice’s key volunteers are their Board of Trustees, who act as Trustees of the Charity and Non-Executive Directors of the company.
The Board of Trustees oversee the work of Queenscourt by providing strategic direction, monitoring performance and ensuring that the charity has sufficient funds to deliver its services and honour its promises to the people and organisations who give so generously each year.
Queenscourt Hospice is seeking Trustees in particular to support its clinical and retail activities; however the charity welcomes applications from candidates across a variety of backgrounds.
Trustees will be expected to always act in the best interest of the charity, to ensure it is carrying out its purpose for public benefit through services for patients, families, carers, and communities. Trustees will also work closely with the Executive Directors, who carry out the day-to-day operational responsibility for running the organisation as it achieves its strategic objectives and fulfils its vision.
Debbie Pierce – Lawson, Corporate Services Director at Queenscourt Hospice, said:
“We are delighted to be inviting applications to join our Board of Trustees at such an exciting time for our hospice.
“As Queenscourt continues to drive positive impact, we recognise the invaluable role played by our Board of Trustees.
“These individuals serve as our guides, the stewards of Queenscourt’s mission, and the guardians of our charitable objectives.
“Join Queenscourt Hospice on its journey in continuing to provide exceptional palliative care. Together, let’s ensure that Queenscourt remains here for our community.”
