Staff Leavers and Starters
Some staff started and others have departed over the last few months, and we welcome Rachael Ekiring as finance organiser. We said goodbye to Markus Greenwood who was volunteer co-ordinator and has become manager of a local MIND service. We welcome back Laura Hamilton, who replaces him. We said goodbye to David Graham as Director of Fundraising and Development. Farewell too, to Paul Fairweather as his short term role as adviser ends and welcome to Jill Cooke, already working part time, now a full-time adviser. Fatima Katergi is also welcome back full time as an adviser, following her six months as an intern with the Mines Action Group.
Investing in Volunteers
George House Trust has been awarded the Investing in Volunteers standard for the quality of the training and support we provide our mix of volunteers.
Smart Group
The SMART group (Service Monitoring and Review Team) is one of the ways service users offer views, ideas and feedback. It has been relaunched and there are now 16-20 attending regularly, led by the vice chair of trustees.
We have actively recruited people using all the various George House Trust services. The group meets monthly and reports directly to the Trustee Board. The group has a workplan for the whole year running up to the next Annual General Meeting in October. If you would like to know more please contact lynda@ght.org.uk
