C3SC Board Members

The C3SC Board of Trustees have legal responsibility for its overall management and decision making. Board Members are responsible for the direction and performance of C3SC, delegating duties and responsibilities to deliver C3SC’s work to staff.

I’ve really enjoyed my time as a C3SC trustee so far, getting to know the staff team and volunteers, and starting to map out some ideas with the trustee board on how we can best support the organisation and its members.

Trustee; Funding Committee Chair

The third sector in Cardiff attracts individuals who are committed to their goal, so much so that they provide their support voluntarily. My aim is to help those volunteers promote their ambitions by sharing lessons learnt and my experiences of the commercial world.

The third sector in both Wales and overseas are central in creating change. I’m particularly passionate about the role of small charities as they are in right position and have the most accurate understanding to best support and advocate for their communities. Working for small charities in Cardiff, I have been supported by C3SC and know how valuable that help can be; I’m honoured to now be part of C3SC.

I am a founding member of the Ugandans in Wales community group. It is through this charitable work that I learned about Cardiff Third Sector Council. I was impressed by C3SC’s work in the community where I live, and I felt motivated to join the Board of Trustees.

Radha Nair-Roberts

Trustee

Dr Radha Nair-Roberts (MBiocn, Msc, DPhil, Oxon) worked as a post-doctoral research scientist at Oxford and Cardiff Universities until a long term illness (secondary progressive MS) left her with severe disability and having to use a wheelchair, in 2016. Unable to access suitable exercise in the community, Radha founded the community association Exercise for All Wales (EfA) in 2017. As Chair of EfA Radha continues to raise funds and campaign for better access and equality for all disabled people.

NB

I have always tried to work with people in a co-productive way, with effective and active listening being the key to providing services that reflect what people really want and need. I believe my work practice is inclusive, focusing on people’s strengths, rather than any perceived needs.

I see C3SC’s role as the key enabler for developing the third sector within Cardiff – helping and supporting its members to deliver projects and services, and acting as a key conduit between members and statutory services, funders and parts of the private sector.

C3SC has been supportive to the charities where I work and volunteer, and I hope that as part of the Board of Trustees, I can bring my experiences of working and volunteering in the Third Sector in Cardiff to the service of C3SC and its members.

I have had a long association with the voluntary sector and served on the former County Voluntary Council  called Intervol during the 80’s. I am passionate about the voluntary work that happens in our city and want to be part of the team that provides support to the voluntary organisations, who enrich the lives of people, in all of our communities.
