Governance

A well-run charity is an effective charity. So, we put as much effort into making sure we’re a robust and well-run organisation as we do making a difference to the people we support. This means that we, and the people we work with, can be confident that Stockdales will still be going strong in the future.

We’re lucky to have the support of our Trustees who give their time freely to help with the smooth running of the charity. Our Trustees have different backgrounds and we are proud to count on people from business, social care and teaching backgrounds to help guide Stockdales.

You could be a part of our fantastic team of Trustees. If you’d like to find out more, please call us on 0161 973 2296 or send us an email.

You can apply online here or contact us and we’ll send you an application form.
