Our newly-formed Hawke's Bay Charitable Women's Health Trust is seeking a new treasurer. Comprised of four local women foundation members including a clinical advisor, Rose Gold Trust is focused on delivering positive health outcomes for Hawke's Bay women, particularly in the menopause and midlife space. We're hoping you or your networks may know someone with experience as a treasurer and ideally (but not essentially) having had governance experience. We meet via Zoom once a month and actively work on fundraising events and proposals. Like every trustee, this would be a volunteer position. But it's a great cause and we'd love to know if anyone is keen to join us! Please reply or email me in confidence yvonne@yvonnelorkin.com
