The Southlands Liaison Group (SLG) and the Southlands Methodist Trust (SMT) are seeking expressions of interest from those interested to be considered as new members/trustees. Appointments are made simultaneously to both bodies, on the recommendation of those groups to the Methodist Council.
Read the most recent Southlands Methodist Trust Annual Report here to find out more about our activities.
We are especially seeking expressions of interest from well-qualified individuals who will expand the diversity of our membership.
The Groups are also particularly looking for members with one or more of the following skills/interests:
- Property development skills
- Legal expertise, especially charity and property law
- Scholarship and Research at HE level, especially in areas of relevance to the life of the Methodist Church
- Strong leadership qualities
- Engagement with young adults
The SMT and SLG normally meet 3 times per year (and rarely more than 4 times). The dates for their meetings can be made flexibly around the availability of its members, though they normally coincide with university terms and take place on weekday afternoons.
Members of the groups occasionally take on additional roles, such as supporting grants scrutiny processes, chaplain reinvitation, staffing recruitment etc.
We encourage our members/trustees to take an active part in the life of the college and its university, inviting them to attend a number of events and activities through the year and to work with us on any relevant projects. As such, we would hope that a new members to be able and willing to accommodate travel to Roehampton on a number of additional occasions each year.
