Governance

Eastside Community Trust is a registered charity (1081691) and a company (04023294).

Our Chair is Manu Maunganidze and he is responsible for leading the board in their decision making and supporting the CEO. Manu is supported by a vice chair, Andy Burkitt and a treasurer, Jess Slack.

The Strategic Board meets four times a year. Each board member also participates in a sub-committee with an area of responsibility. The sub-committees meet at least twice a year and have some delegated decision making from the board.

Current Sub-Committees are:

• Finance (chair Jess Slack)
• People (chair Mandy Watson)
• Risk (chair Noelle Rumball)
• Resources and operations (chair Alice Ballantine Dykes)

We also have four advisory groups which we hope to meet twice a year. These are led by staff members and are open to all members to participate:

• Climate and sustainability
• Inclusion
• People and places
• Children and play
