Trustees Week 2026 – Highlighting the valuable contributions our Trustees make to Brainkind

This week is Trustees Week!

Trustees are volunteers who play a key role in the work of charities, bringing the skills, specialisms, and expertise needed to help charities fulfil their purpose. The Brainkind trustees oversee the organisation, ensure it is complying with the law and managing its finances, and along with senior leaders decide the best way for the charity to fulfil its purpose of supporting those with brain injuries and other neurological conditions.

Trustees Week gives us a chance to thank our trustees for what they do and to raise more awareness about the essential roles that our trustees play in Brainkind’s work. Kathryn Greenberg, the Chair of our Board of Trustees, said: “As we start this week, we would like to highlight the valuable contribution that our Trustees make in sharing their expertise and acting as critical friends for our senior executives. We are grateful for the passion they project as ambassadors in their networks.

“Their time and energy as volunteers are never underestimated and as key stakeholders, they seek to amplify the voices of those we support and weigh up conflicting interests when shaping the strategy so that the charity delivers the vision and intended impact.

“Thank you to my fellow board members for all their contributions on behalf of Brainkind.”

This week, we will be introducing a couple of our new trustees and thanking all our trustees, new and old, past and present, for the important work they do for Brainkind and the people we support.
