We’re very excited to be able to offer our young session attendees the opportunity to get involved with our brand-new children’s board. We want to be able to allow children to have a say in how we run our charity and what we offer in terms of our services, so we are inviting them to become a part of a board that will help make these decisions. This is a great opportunity for young kids to make some new friends, get involved in some of the fun activities Under The Trees does at sessions, and gain some real experience in decision-making and collaboration. There will also be food!

 

Initially the board meetings will be more frequent to allow the members to get to know each other and feel comfortable - roughly one session per month - with the aim of eventually reducing meetings to every two months. Meetings will involve some games and activities, having some food together, and a bit of discussion about the things Under The Trees would like to do, and any ideas the board members have that we could try!
