Carneys Community

Carney's Community gets disadvantaged and excluded young people off the street and away from a life of crime and despair
by giving them skills, discipline and self-respect. Our approach, inspired by boxing legend Mick Carney, is unusual and particularly resource intensive but ultimately effective because we recognise that creating lasting change takes time, hard work and dedication.
Our work reduces offending, reoffending and anti-social behaviour, whilst improving social mobility and community cohesion. Consequently, we improve the quality of life for the communities we serve.

We are seeking a dynamic individual to help lead us in our next phase of organisational development as chair of trustees.
We are seeking candidates with strategic insight, an understanding of charity governance, financial acumen, and experience as a public face of an organisation, to lead the board and support the Chief Executive. As
a small charity, we are seeking a chair with a ‘hands on’ attitude who is prepared to get involved in the charity’s work directly, and who can provide around 1-2 days work a month.
