The Dons Trust board is sad to pass on the following statement from board member Richard Shepherd:
“I’ve taken the difficult decision to step down from the board in December 2024.
The role has become all consuming and has taken a significant impact on my work/life balance. I think it’s a sensible decision to step down now and allow someone new to join who has the time to dedicate to the Trust.”
Richard Shepherd
The rest of the board would like to take the opportunity to thank Richard for his contributions.
Richard has been instrumental in bringing in KPIs and a well-managed risk register for example. And the considered and positive approach he has brought to the board.
As a result of Richard standing down, there will now be 8 board vacancies at the next election.
Details of how to stand for election can be found via Link if any member would like to chat to current board member to find out more about being on the board then please get in touch for a chat via contact@thedonstrust.org.
