We are seeking trustees who are passionate about volunteering and who have time available to volunteer for this role.
This is an exciting time for our Centre, as we work with our sister Centres across Dublin to develop a Strategy for Volunteering in Dublin.
Purpose of this Role:
As a member of our Board you will gain valuable personal and professional experience.
While also contributing to the ongoing strategic development and governance of Dún Laoghaire Rathdown Volunteer Centre CLG.

Developing volunteering in Dún Laoghaire Rathdown
Time Commitment
Board members attend 5 board meetings annually, these meetings are 1.5 hours in length and are generally on Tuesday evenings from in Dún Laoghaire.
Occasionally some board members may also be active on a sub committee, which would meet between meetings, at a time that suits.
Board Members would also need to have time between board meetings to read particular items sent by the manager for feedback and to be actively engaged on topics between meetings.
Some weeks there will be no time commitment, on other weeks, 1-2 hours would be asked of members, this can be flexible and the volunteer can choose when to give their time.
Support, Training & Getting started:
A full Induction is provided and all new Board members will meet with the chair before attending their first meeting.
Initially new members, are invited to join the Board for six months in an informal capacity and if the role is a good fit for the volunteer and the organisation, the role can be formalised and the volunteer will be invited to become a director of the Board
Board members will also be given the board handbook, annual and strategic plan and other relevant documents before starting.
