Could you be our next Treasurer?

We’re looking for someone who enjoys keeping finances in good order and takes quiet satisfaction in things being done properly.

About West Berkshire Therapy Centre

Our broad aim is to meet the currently unmet health and well-being needs of the local community and to identify opportunities where we, as part of the 'not-for-profit' sector, can fill some of those gaps and provide helpful, much needed, good quality services. We are planning to construct new premises to include a Hydrotherapy Pool service alongside our award winning power-assisted exercise rehabilitation gym.

Many disabled people find it difficult to take as much exercise as they want or as is generally recommended, limiting their lives and potential.

West Berkshire Therapy Centre is a highly specialised rehabilitation gym, equipped with power-assisted exercise equipment, for the benefit of disabled people from the local community. Following assessment from our therapist, Centre users are able to receive exercise therapy provided by a range of carefully designed and selected machines, easing stiff or reluctant muscles, giving them more strength and co-ordination, improved mobility, better ability to perform tasks of daily living, helping also to manage weight, improve circulation, reduce the risks of serious health problems in later years and more feelings of well-being. Plans are under way to develop a community hydrotherapy pool service on similar lines.

What skills do I need?

If you’re numerate, reliable, and like being trusted with responsibility, this is a genuinely worthwhile way to contribute your skills, without a heavy time commitment. This role may particularly suit someone with finance or business experience, perhaps retired or semi-retired, who would value a purposeful and trusted way to use their skills.

When is this role available?

This is a flexible role available on various days/times.

Details

The role can be carried out flexibly to suit your availability. Trustees meet monthly, with Treasury matters reviewed at each meeting. Trustee meetings are held on weekdays during working hours.
