The Role of a Trustee and The Management Commitee
Trustees are volunteers who are responsible for the good governance of an organisation.
Our organisation is governed by the AMW management commitee.
The AMW Trustees are members of this committee.
They carry this out by:
- Concentrating on Advocacy Matters (Wales) overall direction – strategy and plans
- Ensuring AMW complies with the law and procedures
- Being ‘accountable’ to service users and the wider public
- Protecting finances and property
- Supporting people who work in the organisation – trustees, staff, volunteers
The Committee takes ultimate responsibility for the organisation and is responsible for 'the general control and management of the administration of a charity' (Charities Act, 1993, section 97).
