Volunteer/Director ??

Kateykrunch Googled it It seems to be the same as a trustee but for a non-profit making organisation www.nolo.com/legal-encyclopedia/what-is-a-board-of-trustees-versus-a-board-of-directors.html#:~:text=While%20some%20organizations%20may%20use,than%20a%20board%20of%20directors.

I have been a director of a company which has charity status some years ago. I needed to understand the role of both director and trustee and tge responsibilities and liabilities of both as a charity trustee and also as a director. There were implications in both company law and charity law.

I was responsible (with others) for decision making so needed to be fully involved becsuse as a trustee I was personally liable if stupid decisions were taken.

I'd be certain what they are looking for and want to see them properly in action before I agreed to do either job.
I'm not sure that directors are personally liable though.

BTW, my charity only added on the company status because they wanted to sell publications and were advised not to do this as a charity.

It was some years ago.

Thankyou for the info, its really helpful.
