Meet the Trustees
Mind in Bradford is governed by a Non-Executive Board. Board members oversee the strategic direction of the charity and hold the management team to account. They serve on a voluntary basis and receive no payment for their services.
We are lucky to have a strong Board of Trustees with a diverse range of skills, expertise, abilities and experience.
