Advisory trustees are often representatives of the owners, responsible for bringing the views of the owners to the responsible trustees. Or they might be someone who has a specific skillset brought in to provide advice to responsible trustees.
Advisory trustees:
- bring the views of the owners to the trust's board
- take part in decision-making, ensuring owners' views are represented
- are not responsible for any of the trust's assets, though they can be involved in discussions and decision-making about the assets.
Advisory trustees do not have the same level of risk or legal responsibility as responsible or custodian trustees.
Acting as an advisory trustee can be a way of learning the job before becoming a responsible trustee, though there's no requirement to become a responsible trustee.
