New Trustees for Anawim, Birmingham Two new female Trustees sought for charity Expand Anawim is a remarkable charity. Most of the women Anawim works with have suffered trauma, violence or abuse at some point in their lives – whether it’s through domestic or financial abuse, sexual trauma, homelessness, mental illness or through involvement with the criminal justice system. Father Hudson’s Care has been a foundation partner of Anawim for over 20 years and has been delighted to see the progress made in that time, including Anawim becoming a charity in its own right in 2015. It has worked alongside the other foundation partner, the Sisters of Our Lady of Charity of the Good Shepherd, to support Anawim in many different ways. One of the best ways to help a charity is to provide good governance. As part of its ongoing commitment to Anawim, Father Hudson’s Care is seeking to appoint two new female Trustees who would represent Father Hudson’s on the Anawim Board, providing continuity and ongoing support.
