Our other Trustees come from a range of backgrounds in the charity, public and private sectors. Some have lengthy experience of being charity trustees or chairs, some are newer to board membership. All are well engaged and positioned to help with specific skills required within the organisation. We have three sub-committees overseeing fundraising and finance, programmes and partnerships, and people.

“I love being the Chair of Khulisa because it allows me to work with a team of passionate, experienced professionals who are known experts in helping young people to improve their emotional resilience and wellbeing. I learn something every time I work with them and feel honoured to play even a small part in their journey. They are truly a special team and they have big and ambitious plans which is so exciting for any incoming Trustees.” – Shivonne Graham (Chair People and Performance Working Group)
‘I’ve been impressed from day 1 with the ambition and professionalism of the whole team at Khulisa and the commitment to creating and demonstrating positive impact for young people. Trauma informed support for young people’s wellbeing has never been more vital than it is right now and it’s an honour to serve as Trustee at this critical time.”- Phillipa Frankl (Trustee)
Support for the Chair
The nature of support and supervision offered will depend on the nature of the role, how many days are volunteered, length of volunteering commitment and skill set of the volunteer.
Khulisa is committed to providing good quality support and supervision. We have a scheme to assign an existing trustee to support their initial induction to the Board. They will also be welcome to ask for support from the team and the Board at any time, and have access to various resources through our corporate partners and NCVO membership.
