A photo of thirteen people in a courtyard with brick walls and floor, a wooden trellis with plants growing on behind them. All of them are smiling looking at the camera, eleven of them are standing behind four people sitting on folding chairs. Across the bottom of the image text reads: Intro to Trusteeship. Zoo Co logo in the top right.
We recognise that volunteer Trusteeships aren't always accessible to deaf and / or disabled people, so we've set up this programme offering two people the chance to observe each of our next two Board meetings, supported by our Board Support Worker.
