Introducing ... an Audit & Governance Volunteer Member

Introducing ... Janice! Janice has lived in Harpenden for 20 years. Having retired from a career in NHS finance, Janice became a member of our Audit & Governance Committee.

She says of her voluntary work with Harpenden Trust, “It’s really important for clients, volunteers and donors to know that the Trust is being managed well and great to be able to use my experience in this way”.
