Why Every Charity needs a Tech Committee

Today we talk with three amazing people - Su Crichton, Freddie Quek, and Mark Dearnley. All of them have chosen to volunteer their time as a digital trustee for a charity. We talk about what it is like to be a trustee, the skills they bring, and the interactions between the board and the internal team. We also talk about what it is like - and what you should consider if you are thinking of becoming a trustee. We also discuss Tech Commitees - why have one Digital Trustee, when you could have six?
