The Project provides Early learning and Childcare for under 5s, as well as educational, vocational and social development opportunities for parents and carers.  First Step also provides outreach services for families experiencing a period of difficulty in their lives.

Board Members

We are looking to expand membership of our Strategic Board, to develop the strategic direction, support the Project's aims and objectives and ensure good governance. If you can devote some time and are motivated to assisting us we would welcome your application.

We would be particularly interested in hearing from enthusiastic and caring individuals with skills, experience and knowledge in any of the following areas:

• Business Development

• Fundraising and identification of funding streams

• Human resource management

• Academic / research within the Early Years and Family support

• Legal expertise

• Social media, marketing, digital marketing and PR

It would be beneficial if potential Board Members have an understanding of or involvement in the charity sector, however this is not essential.
