Would you like to become a Trustee?... The Elizabeth Casson Trust is a charitable Trust and fund established in 1948 on behalf of Dr Elizabeth Casson, founder of occupational therapy in the UK. Our purpose is to provide funds to support the ‘furtherance of occupational therapy’ primarily, but not exclusively, in the UK (www.elizabethcasson.org.uk) Our Board comprises ten members all of whom bring their own professional skills to the Trust. We are primarily a virtual group who undertake the majority of our work remotely. The commitment expected from our trustees is attendance at four meetings each year as well as participation in at least one of the working groups responsible for a strand of our strategy. We are currently looking for two new trustees to complement our Board: • An occupational therapist with at least three years current experience in either the NHS, social care or third sector to take up the role in spring/summer • A further position will be advertised later in the year for an occupational therapist to take up the position in the autumn/winter.
