Engage your local networks 

Many of the organisations we work with promote volunteer roles to their local networks or internal departments. If this is applicable to your organisation, we’d be really interested in having a presence on their opportunities page or in their newsletter. Please do adapt, use and share the copy on this page to spread the word about school governance as a skilled volunteering opportunity.

Are you a part of a local, regional or national governance network? If so, we’re always keen to find out about how we can better support your networks with their recruitment and development needs. Please contact us at [email protected] if you wish to discuss this further.
