It’s
that time of year where many people find themselves wanting to make a change in
their lives, to start something new – a new hobby, new routine or, the most
popular choice, a new year’s resolution!

But
did you know that only ‘9% of individuals successfully complete their New
Year’s resolutions‘ with 43% of us expecting to quit as early as
February. [1]

One
of the main reasons for this statistic, is that people tend to lose motivation
in the challenge they set themselves, with many not putting in the preparation
before committing to a New Year’s Resolution.

We
all want to feel like we’re making a positive difference in our community and
at MK Community Foundation, we want to increase the diversity of those who sit
on boards and represent us.

We
know that boards which represent the communities they serve are essential to
offering insights and lived experience examples, which go on to help shape the
development of charities and community groups.

As
a Trustee, you can give your time, expertise, and skills to help support a
cause close to your heart.
