Time commitment
Our trustees are expected to attend six board meetings each year. These normally take place on a Monday evening, at our office in Esher. Reading preparation for each board meeting will take around one-two hours. All Citizens Advice trustees are required to complete a small number of e-learning courses each year.
In addition, as the IT lead, you will need to have time to participate in various IT discussions with our management team and with the IT support company we use. This work may average around 1-2 hours a week.
What difference will you make?
People with good local knowledge and strategic vision can really help us to develop a service that meets the changing advice needs of our community.
More specifically, your input will help us to reach more people and provide more timely advice.
What's in it for the volunteer?
Citizens Advice is a well-respected and influential organisation. This is an opportunity to help develop this much-needed charity at a local level, really making a difference to people's lives.

Initial induction and training takes place in-house and through peer support but there is the opportunity to attend national Citizens Advice conferences and seminars. Travel expenses to these events are paid.
