THE TRUSTEES

 

Game Therapy UK has a small, but diverse, team of Trustees.  All the Trustees are unpaid and have declared no financial conflicts of interest with the charity.

 

The Trustees have a broad and in-depth experience of setting up successful and innovative organisations across business, charity, clinical and educational spectrum. They also bring experience of working with homeless, addiction, veterans’ services, the prison services and services working with neurodivergent young people. They also have knowledge in areas of the charities primary activities including physical, mental health and social disadvantage as well as experience in research and training.

​

The trustees meet a minimum of quarterly (January/ April/ July/ Oct).

​

A copy of the charities accounts are available upon request. The charities policy documents and standards are available here.
