Action East Devon (AED) is a small-medium sized charity and registered company delivering
wellbeing and mental health services to young people across East Devon. We have small but
highly skilled team of 5 and a committed and hard working Board of Trustees. Our aim is to
ensure that new trustees gain personal satisfaction from their participation – can you be the
person to help Action East Devon grow and succeed?
We are seeking to recruit one or two Trustees to the Board, who will contribute to the next
exciting phase of our 3 year strategy now that we have secured financial support from the Lottery
and Children in Need.
An AED trustee should have a commitment to our mission and strategic vision with an
independent judgement alongside an ability to work effectively as a team member. Trustees need
to have a willingness to meet the minimum time requirement of Board meetings, AGM and an
annual strategy meeting.
We are particularly interested in applications from candidates with the following skill sets:
Fundraising & bid writing
Youth work, young people & education
Marketing, PR & Communications
Legal, charity and company regulation
Mental Health, counselling and the NHS
