Can my husband become a trustee?

Governance

anna marie keane Fundraiser at general Posted 2 years ago

I am a paid, part time project manager for a registered charity and I would like to approach my husband to become a trustee as he has experience and knowledge in the employment sector and I think he would make a good trustee.
We have the same surname, I am not a trustee, I am a paid member of staff, would it present issues with potential funders if he did become a trustee? Any advice would be appreciated
