Trustee Network
MDEM is pleased to run a network for museum and heritage trustees from organisations of all sizes across the East Midlands.
This network is for individuals who wish to meet and share best practice and access peer support from other trustees.
It will enable members to gain access to bespoke trustee training and advice in topics such as finance, governance and audience development.
The network meets 2-4 times per a year and is driven by its members. Each Trustee Network meeting is different, but all aim to showcase another independent organisation, and has a speaker targeted at a topic requested by the network.
You do not need to be a trustee at an accredited museum to sign up to the network, it is open to all whose organisations have a heritage focus.
How to join the network
The network is free to join and open to all trustees. To join the network please enter your details below. By entering your details, you are agreeing to MDEM’s privacy policy. MDEM will not share your contact details at any point without further explicit permission. You can unsubscribe at any time.
