Coffee4Craig are recruiting trustees

Coffee4Craig was founded in 2013 by Risha and Hendrix Lancaster following the death of Risha’s brother Craig White, who died of a heroin overdose whilst sleeping on the streets in Cardiff. Coffee4Craig was born in his memory and started as a simple idea that if you pass someone sleeping on the streets, buy them a coffee and say, 'This is from Craig'. From these beginnings, Coffee4Craig has continued to grow and develop. Coffee4Craig currently runs an indoor evening drop-in provision 7 nights a week, based at ‘The Meanwhile’ 153 Great Ducie Street, where guests can access a wide range of facilities and support.

Coffee4Craig are seeking to appoint a new Secretary Trustee and a new General Trustee to the Board of Trustees, and are looking for committed, dynamic and motivated individuals who are sympathetic to the aims and objectives of Coffee4Craig.

Two-year term with a review after one year
Estimated 1-2 days per month, including attendance at monthly Board meetings in addition to providing advice and support on specific projects on an ad-hoc basis
Trustees are also requested to visit The Meanwhile at least once every 2 months to develop a greater understanding of Coffee4Craig and its work

All Trustee positions are on a voluntary basis. The role is not accompanied by any payment; however, reasonable expenses may be claimed e.g. local travel.
