About the role
About BrightPIP and Our Vision
Brighton Parent Infant Psychological Therapy (BrightPIP) is a small, local charity that provides intensive support to expectant parents and those with babies under the age of three. We are rooted in our community and responsive and connected to our families and referrers. Our standards are informed by clinical excellence so that we provide highly effective interventions that are tailored to each family. We are deeply commmitted to service development that is shaped by the community we serve.
Our trustees play a big part in helping us realise and achieve our strategic objectives and meet the needs of those we’re committed to supporting: babies and their young families. As we enter our second decade, we’re now recruiting a new Chair and other trustees to support our growth and development we enter an exciting next chapter.
