  • Collaboration with a dedicated team of staff, volunteers, and fellow trustees.
  • A full induction, with ongoing Board development and support.
  • Reimbursement for any travel and accommodation expenses in line with the charity’s policy.


Time Commitment


This is a voluntary role requiring approximately one day per month . The role is primarily remote, with occasional travel for meetings and events. The Board meets quarterly, with some meetings held virtually and others in person.
