Who we are
Winchester and District Young Carers are a small independent charity set up in 1999 who support young carers aged 8-25 who take on caring responsibilities for an unwell or disabled family member. We provide programmes of support to empower young carers to look after their physical and emotional wellbeing, take respite from their caring roles and have experiences they would otherwise miss out on.
The role
Would you like to utilise your financial skills to make a difference to the lives of young carers in the community? If you have passion and would like to give something back, we would love to hear from you!
Winchester & District Young Carers believes that young carers are children first and should be free to develop emotionally and take full advantage of opportunities for educational achievement and life success.
Our Charity was one of the first in the country to be set up specifically to support the needs of young carers. The Charity has been successfully running for 25 years and has an established Trustee board and strong staff team in place. As the Charity’s Treasurer, you will help the organisation to maintain an overview of its’ affairs, ensure its financial viability, and ensure that proper financial records and procedures are maintained. You will oversee and present budgets to the Board, make financial statements available, and ensure that the charity has appropriate management accounts and financial reports. As a good communicator, you will also help other Board members to understand the statements, so that trustees can make decisions that ensure the financial resources of the organisation meet its present and future needs.
