As a member of the Unit management team, your role as a Charity trustee is more of a backstage one in terms of looking after the young people, but certainly central to our charity at St Helens Sea Cadets. We are responsible for the building at Mill Street Barracks, along with fundraising, insurance, all the finances of the Charity and the general day to day running of the building. We also let our Unit out to other groups and organisations and the Unit Management team co-ordinate all of this.
We are total advocates of flexible volunteering, meaning that we understand the time pressures of modern life, and we aim to ensure our volunteers can fit their roles around this. For this reason,
We meet only once a month/once every two months depending on the level of activity. We comprise of a Chair, a Secretary and a Treasurer, along with other members who are all working towards making a better experience for our Cadets and Community.
We are currently looking for additional members to join our team. A Sea Cadet Trustee role is incredibly rewarding, watching young people progress and be supported by volunteers at your Unit is a great feeling, knowing that you are instrumental in facilitating it all as part of an essential team. Along with a truly rewarding experience, we can offer you in return camaraderie, experience, a full DBS and training opportunities.
