CSSC Region conducts business and provides support to help CSSC and its Regions succeed.

• A great opportunity to enhance your CV, and gain experience to help you to stand out from others
• A chance to develop your leadership qualities, and interpersonal skills you can gain a better understanding of the way in which appointed committees operate, and how decisions are made
• The satisfaction of bringing your experience and skills to the table and helping CSSC to achieve continued success

Approximately 5 - 6 hours a month – you can largely manage the time you give flexibly. Your Regional Committee will typically meet once a month, and remote attendance at meetings is always available.

Regional Officers are invited to CSSC's National AGM and any Volunteer Awards events as well as their own Regional Conferences. Additional Teams calls may occasionally take place, and some business is conducted by email.

Whilst Regional Officers are unpaid, reasonable travel costs are met. Regional Officers are appointed for a term of four years and can serve a maximum of two terms.

background and those with a disability, as these groups are currently under-represented on our
committees.

• Passionate about what CSSC does and prepared to promote the aims of CSSC

• Have the ability to listen carefully, and make concise and constructive contributions to discussions
• You do not need to have previous experience of sitting on a Committee to apply
