  • I am over age 18.
  • I am not an undischarged bankrupt.
  • I have not previously been removed from trusteeship of a charity by a court or the charity commissioners.

  • I undertake to fulfil my responsibilities and duties as a trustee of Health in Mind in good faith and in accordance with the law and within Health in Mind’s objectives, vision and values.
  • I do not have any financial interests in conflict with those of Health in Mind (either in person or through family or business connections) except those which I have formally notified in a conflict of interest statement. I will specifically notify any such interest at any meeting where trustees are required to make a decision which affects my personal interests, and I will unless agreed otherwise absent myself entirely from any decision on the matter and not vote on it.
