Trustees are expected to contribute typically around 3-4 hours a month of their time, including attending and preparing for meetings.

Trustee duties and responsibilities include:

  • Contributing to the formulation of policy, strategic direction and service development
  • Monitoring CACE’s financial status and ensuring that it operates within its means
  • Maintaining awareness of CACE’s services and performance
  • Maintaining confidentiality about CACE and any information received as a Trustee.

The personal skills and qualities required of a Trustee include:

  • Commitment to the aims, principles and policies of the Citizens Advice service
  • The ability to communicate well, contribute to discussions and work effectively as a team member
  • The ability to think strategically and exercise sound independent judgement
