Become a trustee

Our trustees play a big part in all that we do.

Joining our Board of Trustees gives you an opportunity to play a big part in making sure we offer people with learning and other disabilities greater choice and the very best opportunities in life. Take a look at our roles to see what Trustees do.

Trustees are there to ensure we work in a way that reflects our vision, mission and values. And that we spend our funds in a cost-conscious way to achieve the best impact.

 Our Vision –  Disabled people will have every opportunity throughout their life to achieve their full potential.

Our Mission – To change society so that disabled people can fully enjoy their rights and live happily and independently as possible.

What we’re looking for

We’d love to hear from you whatever your professional background and whether or not you have experience as a Trustee.  We welcome applicants of any background, particularly those who are under-represented in the communities we work within and have an understanding of social action. We are particularly keen to hear from you if you have skills or experience in the following areas:

  • Governance
  • Accountancy/Finance 
  • HR and Legal

What’s involved

The Charity is governed by a Board of Trustees who meet on a quarterly basis to provide strategic direction, oversight of the work of the charity and to give support to the Chief Executive and the Senior Management Team (SMT).
