Call for Trustees Following a recent resignation, WE ARE ESPECIALLY INTERESTED IN RECRUITING one or two NEW TRUSTEES. The Trustees are responsible for educational policy, partnership agreements and financial management. They also have the special (and specially interesting) task of selecting young women for scholarships. Trustee meetings take place about every six weeks, in person (when possible) for those who live in or near Edinburgh, and by Zoom. There is no financial obligation or commitment to becoming a Trustee, but each Trustee is expected to take responsibility for a particular area of activity -- for example, fundraising, grant application, publicity. If you are interested in finding out more about the valuable role you could play, please email the Fund's Director, Lindsay Graham at [email protected]
