July 2026 Impetus.
At the recent Trustee’s Meeting in late April, we bid farewell to John Chambers who has retired as a trustee after serving for 22 years and 5 months, many of which as treasurer. John brought a wealth of experience, financial wisdom and the ability to ask critical questions with grace and humour. We will miss him. Thank you, John, for your service to APF.
We have also seen Revd Richard Tucker and Revd Andrew North retire as trustees in the past year, so we are actively seeking to appoint new UK based trustees.
Having carried out a simple skills audit, we have identified particular need in the following areas:
- Business and Finance
- Legal and Governance
- Fundraising and Marketing
- Information Technology
Perhaps you, or someone known to you, have skills or experience in one of more of these areas? Would you, or they, be willing to explore what it means to be a trustee of APF?
As a regular reader of Impetus, I hope you are already enthusiastic about our mission to enable effective ministry in Africa and have seen the pioneering development of the charity in recent years. Being a charity trustee is a big responsibility but also an exciting opportunity to serve global mission in a strategic way.
I would be delighted to hear from you!
Thank you,
Revd Dave Stedman
CEO
