Would you like to give back to the community? Become a Trustee! CCB are recruiting.

The Community Council for Berkshire is looking to recruit new Trustees onto our Board and to fill the vacancy of Honorary Treasurer. 

CCB is an independent charity with over 40 years’ experience in community development work. CCB is the Rural Community Council for Berkshire and works to strengthen and support local communities throughout Berkshire. Our core mission is to enable communities in Berkshire to thrive by using our knowledge, skills and enterprise. Our vision is to strengthen, promote and empower communities across Berkshire.

Your skills and experience will be put to use to make a lasting difference in the communities in which you work or live. If you have more time on your hands due to retirement or other circumstances this could be the perfect role for you. Alternatively if you have a busy work life there are only a handful of (mostly evening) meetings to attend a year and we would appreciate your comments and input on key decisions.  

As we are a small staff team we do rely on volunteers to step in where needed and complete key task and finish jobs. This is an opportunity to enhance your CV and open doors to possible new career paths!
