Sue Robson Trustee of the Year Award
"We will also be presenting the Sue Robson Trustee of the Year Award and we are now accepting nominations. Do you know a Sutton trustee who has gone above and beyond the call of duty to make a difference for their organisation? Then nominate them for an award! The deadline for nominations is Sunday 1st November - for a nomination form please email [email protected]
“I feel deeply honoured by it because I know that there are hundreds of trustees who are just as effective as I am and I think that’s why I feel very touched by this particular honour and I think we are very fortunate in Sutton as there are so many people who are willing to work in charities not for what they can get out of it but because they want to be useful and do some helpful work in the community.
I particularly think the effectiveness of the trustees in Sutton is because we are all involved with SCVS and their amount of knowledge and advice helps us to be effective when we run our charities.”
Mavis Peart, Chair, Sutton Mencap - Sutton Trustee of the Year 2014
