Firebrake Wales is the Welsh Community Fire Safety Charity.  Our mission is to reduce the incidence of deaths and injuries in fires by raising awareness of risks, providing safety information, promoting fire safety research and encouraging collaboration between the public, private and voluntary sectors to make Wales a safer place.

We are currently seeking to build upon current expertise through the recruitment of up to 6 committed individuals to serve as Trustees.

The Board has overall responsibility for the performance of the Charity and concerns itself primarily with strategy, governance, human resource and financial oversight. 

The successful candidates will:

• be progressive, enthusiastic  and motivated
• be willing to work as a proactive team member
• be familiar with partnership working
• understand the responsibilities of Trusteeship

Interest is especially welcome from those with experience in the areas of finance, the voluntary sector, health & social care, research, marketing and community safety. We are particularly keen to achieve a diverse Board of Trustees and welcome applications from all sections of the community.

Firebrake Wales is an all-Wales organisation. We currently have representation  from across the country and rotate Trustee meetings throughout the regions.

We welcome applications from all areas of Wales

The role of Trustee is not remunerated but travel and expenses are paid.
