About Us

Trustees

The Police Children’s Charity is governed by a Board of Trustees. The Board provides strategic guidance through business planning; agrees and sets an annual budget; and monitors activity and service provision through regular reports on service delivery, the annual Business Plan and annual budget.

Our Trustees are drawn from all three police staff associations in England and Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland.
