BloodForce

We work in Ghana to eliminate the burden of blood acquisition on providers and patients in crisis by leveraging technology to galvanize the public to increase Ghana’s Blood Collection Index to greater than 10 by 2030, because no patient in crisis should die from unavailability of blood products.

Ghana at 5.6 per 1000 population, is significantly behind WHO minimum standard [10 per 1,000 population] required to meet a country’s basic transfusion needs. As a result, restrictive blood disbursement policies have resulted in delayed care for critical patients in Ghana and in many cases, avoidable deaths.

We believe that public communities can be mobilized to close gaps in health care delivery, particularly in developing countries. BloodForce plans to build an online blood donor community that can reliably and meaningfully increase blood donation rates in Ghana while helping patients and families navigate their blood product health crises. This community will also serve as a platform for advocacy and education, strengthening transfusion services across the country.

The Fundraising Lead at BloodForce spearheads donor engagement, grant sourcing, and campaign development to support our mission of improving blood access in Ghana.

Mental Health Professional Advisor
Business Development/Sales
Marketing/Merchandising
Construction/Facilities

Are you passionate about supporting the third sector? Do you want to ‘give back’, make a real difference and have the time to help us achieve our ambitious plans for growth? If the answers to these questions are yes, then we could be the organisation you are looking for and we would love to hear from you.

Better Pathways is a Birmingham based mental health charity that has been delivering support to people with mental health issues, learning disabilities and other neurodiverse conditions for over 60 years. We support our beneficiaries to build back and maintain good mental health and wellbeing, to access services in the community and to move into paid employment, education, training and volunteering opportunities. We do this through a Vocational Pathways Programme delivered in our social enterprises onsite in Digbeth, and through statutory sector contracts delivered in the community.
We are a relatively small charity, with a current turnover that hovers around the £1m, but with big ambitions to grow. Our agenda is broad and complex, and we are looking for Trustees with the right experience to provide advice, guidance and practical support to help us achieve our aims.

Mental Health Professional Advisor
We have recently recruited a counsellor and psychotherapist into our team and want to build on this, innovating our mental health offer for the future. For example, we are having initial discussions with a key industry about the potential to provide mental health support/counselling services for their large workforce. We are also committed to improving the way in which we measure and evidence the impact of our work. You can come from any mental health clinical profession, but we imagine that a senior clinical psychologist or counsellor would add real value to our trustee team.

Business Development/Sales
If you have knowledge of, or experience and networks in, the parts assembly & packing business, preferably in the manufacturing, industrial engineering and parts & retail distribution sectors, and/or experience of the signage business, and would be energised by the prospect of advising our team on business growth/sales strategy, then we have just the opportunity for you across our three social enterprises:

Better Packing: Parts assembly and contract packing
Better Pathways is the legal operating name of Birmingham Industrial Therapy Association Limited. Founded in 1963.
Better Signage: Business signage services (interior &exterior signage, wide format vinyl printing, flat bed printing, laser cutting and engraving, name badges, vinyl graphics). We are looking to developed personalised products for direct to consumer and b2b sales
Better Woodwork: Products for the home and garden made from reclaimed timber

Marketing/Merchandising 

We have updated our branding and website, are reaching out on LinkedIn, attending networking events and more. As we start to concentrate on new product development, especially in our Signage and Woodwork enterprises, but seek to consolidate our existing offers at the same time, expertise in how best to reach the right markets would be a much welcomed addition to our trustee skillset.

Construction/Facilities 

We own our building. We love it, but it leaks when it rains, is difficult and expensive to heat and maintain. We have ambitious plans to ‘Raise the Roof’ (ie, build a new one), to build in a mezzanine floor to create capacity for growth, and to remodel our front of house. We are working with a team to produce Stage 2a design plans for submission to planning and then will be raising funds and exploring options to work with constructors. If you can help with this important part of our agenda, we’d love to hear from you.

Time Commitment
Board meetings: once a quarter for two hours
Strategy session (4 hours): once or twice a year
Other commitments: occasional ad-hoc meetings, again kept to a minimum
