Chair

The Frimley Fuel Allotments, with a history dating back more than 200 years, exists to help people in need, poverty and hardship in the old parish of Frimley now defined by the GU15 and 16 postcodes covering Camberley, Frimley, Frimley Green, Deepcut and Mytchett. The Charity has an annual income of over £200,000 for these purposes.

We are looking to appoint a new Chair to lead our supportive Board of Trustees and small team of paid staff and advisors. The post - which is unpaid - is open to all and may be attractive to someone with leadership experience, a proven commitment to community development and availability of around 8 hours per week. A local connection to the GU15/16 area through residence or business or voluntary involvement is a requirement.

More information about the charity is available on our website - www.ffa.charity
