Become a trustee

Many dancers preparing to take a bow in a single line on the right of the image. Their hands are joined and in the air and they are bathed in a purplish white light. They are all wearing white except the person who wears black. The audiences is visible on the left.

Shallal is entering an exciting period of creative growth and organisational development.  

To reflect this, we are strengthening and diversifying our Board of Trustees to include a wider range of skills and lived experience.  As a community organisation, we believe strongly that our Board of Trustees should represent the entire range of social perspectives. So, if you share our ethos and want to help us reach our goals, even if you might not consider yourself to be a traditional trustee, we are very keen to hear from you.  

If you would like to find out more about becoming a Shallal Trustee, all the information you need is here in our recruitment pack.

This quote from Primary Care Liaisons Nurse and Shallal dance facilitator Debbie O'Nyons shines a light on the way Shallal works:

Creative, fun, supportive, committed, able to value the voice of everyone they meet and work with, Shallal offers an opportunity to push beyond the perceived judgements we make about people and transcend boundaries. For many people, watching Shallal perform for the first time or joining in with a workshop, can lead them to a paradigm shift, which is imperative if we are ever truly going to become an inclusive society.  It takes people from the banal to the aspirational and is often the first step on a creative journey.
