… is a campaign to celebrate finance trustees, inspire more people to become finance trustees and support charities in finding the financial expertise they need to thrive.
Maybe you are already working in the sector with charity finance expertise and experience? Maybe you are new to the sector and want to share your skills for good? Maybe you are a charity that wants to celebrate your own finance Trustee or maybe you are looking for a Trustee with finance skills to join your board? Whatever your position, this campaign is for you. Please join us.
Whether you’re a charity finance manager, an accountant, bookkeeper, or financial advisor, your knowledge and expertise will be invaluable to charities of all sizes. With many charities facing financial challenges, from managing budgets to strategic financial planning, volunteers with financial skills provide the guidance and support needed to overcome these hurdles.
As a finance professional, you have the opportunity to make a difference by sharing your skills with organisations that need them most. By saying “Count Me In,” you will not just be helping a charity to manage its finances more effectively and strengthen its impact; you will also benefit from new experiences, skills, and connections.
And as a charity, by celebrating your finance Trustee you will be raising awareness of how valuable this role is and helping other charities to find the skills they need.

Your financial skills are a superpower
Please don’t underestimate the impact of volunteering your skills for even just a few hours a month. When budgets are tight, your finance and accounting skills are real superpowers that charities need and you can make a huge impact.
Volunteering benefits you, too
Research shows that 77% of volunteers experience improved mental well-being from their efforts. Beyond that, volunteering opens doors to new networks, opportunities for personal growth, and the chance to develop valuable skills—whether it's leading meetings, shaping strategy, or working on financial tasks that go beyond your day job. It’s practical experience that can also give your CV a boost.
Don’t miss the chance to make a meaningful impact during Trustee Week and support charities when they need it most.
