Role

Home-Start Glasgow North and North Lanarkshire (HSGNNL) is seeking committed individuals who are passionate about improving the lives of parents and young children, can think strategically and independently, communicate effectively, and are committed to equality, diversity, inclusion, and the charity’s values, to join its Board of Trustees. In particular, we are keen to hear from those with a back ground in IT, finance and law. 

Trustees play a key role in ensuring HSGNNL fulfils its mission and operates effectively. They are responsible for the charity’s overall governance, strategy, financial oversight, and risk management, while supporting and constructively challenging the Senior Management Team. Trustees work collectively to guide the organisation, monitor performance, review policies and finances, and promote HSGNNL’s aims and reputation using their skills, knowledge, and networks. 

HSGNNL is a community-based charity providing trained volunteer and specialist support to families with young children during difficult times. It supports families with at least one child under five living in North Glasgow and North Lanarkshire, helping those affected by challenges such as mental and physical health issues, isolation, domestic abuse, trauma linked to the asylum process, and multiple births. Families are referred by professionals including Health Visitors, Social Work, Midwifery and Education, or can self-refer. Alongside volunteer home visiting, the charity also offers group activities, intensive family support, Video Interaction Guidance (VIG), and perinatal support. Over the last year we have worked in partnership with NHS colleagues, in particular midwifery, and other third sector partners to establish an Early Years Family Hub which we are keen to develop further.
