Who are we and how are we organised?
As a registered charity, Herts Welcomes Refugees has eight trustees who are legally responsible for ensuring the organisation’s effectiveness in achieving its charitable purpose and agreed outcomes.
A Management Committee, consisting of seven Area Convenors, meets every month to oversee and co-ordinate activities across the county. This includes the work of our Volunteer Coordinator.
