Help safeguard our future: Join BBS UK as our Treasurer
Bardet-Biedl Syndrome UK (BBS UK) is seeking a new Treasurer to join our Board of Trustees and play a key role in ensuring the charity remains financially strong, sustainable, and well governed.
Bardet-Biedl syndrome (BBS) is a rare, complex genetic condition that causes blindness, learning disabilities, obesity, and a range of additional health challenges. BBS UK is the only UK charity dedicated to supporting individuals and families affected by BBS.
We provide advocacy services, NHS clinic support, publications, and community events that help people navigate life with BBS. Each year, we support over 700 individuals, working alongside a small team of dedicated part-time staff and committed volunteers.
It’s an exciting time to join our charity. We are looking to strengthen our governance and build on our financial foundations to support future growth and impact.
The role
As Treasurer, you will oversee the financial governance of BBS UK, working closely with the Board of Trustees, Operations Manager, and external accountant.
This is a strategic oversight role, not a hands-on bookkeeping position. Day-to-day financial administration is carried out by staff; the Treasurer provides assurance, guidance, and clarity to support good decision-making.
Key responsibilities include:
-
Maintaining a strategic overview of the charity’s financial health
-
Presenting clear summaries of financial information at Board meetings
-
Advising Trustees on the financial implications of plans and decisions
-
Overseeing the annual budget and supporting longer-term financial planning

Ensuring appropriate financial controls and procedures are in place

Supporting the preparation of annual accounts and liaison with the Independent Examiner
-
Helping ensure appropriate reserves are maintained in line with policy
The Board of Trustees retains collective responsibility for the charity’s finances.
We’re looking for someone with:
Essential:
-
Experience in finance, accounting, bookkeeping, or financial oversight
-
Confidence interpreting financial information and explaining it clearly to non-financial colleagues
-
Understanding of financial controls and good governance
-
Ability to think strategically and identify financial risks
Desirable:
-
Experience in a charity or not-for-profit setting
-
Understanding of restricted and unrestricted funds
-
Experience working with budgets or management accounts
We particularly welcome applications from people with lived experience of BBS or a connection to the BBS community, though this is not essential.
As a BBS UK Trustee, you will have:
-
Induction, training, and ongoing support
-
Reasonable expenses reimbursed
-
Opportunities to develop new skills and contribute at a strategic level
-
The chance to make a meaningful difference to a rare disease community
-
Opportunities to collaborate with dedicated trustees, staff, and partners
Time commitment
-
Attendance at four Board meetings per year (online, approximately 3 hours each)
-
Reviewing financial information monthly or quarterly
-
Additional input around budget setting and year-end accounts
-
Attendance at our annual conference weekend (in person; expenses covered)
If you would like an informal conversation about the role before applying, we would be very happy to arrange a chat with our Chair.
BBS UK is committed to equality, diversity and inclusion, and we welcome applications from people of all backgrounds who share our values and want to support our community.
By applying for this role you confirm that you are willing and eligible to act as a trustee of BBS UK, that you understand the charity’s purposes and governing document, and that you are not disqualified from acting as a trustee under charity law, including due to relevant unspent convictions, insolvency restrictions, regulatory removal or disqualification, director disqualified from acting as a trustee under charity law, including due to relevant unspent convictions, insolvency restrictions, regulatory removal or disqualification, director disqualification, or other legal prohibitions.
We support and empower our community, champion wellbeing, and raise awareness, ensuring understanding, support, and hope for all affected.

Do you want to support the running of the charity that supports people in Berkshire’s hospitals?
Are you the person to develop and lead our business opportunities planning, alongside our existing trustees?
You could join the Board of the Friends of Berkshire Hospitals, a charity that improves the experience of patients, visitors, medical staff and others who work in the Royal Berkshire and Wokingham Hospitals.
Our charity grew from a Reading-only organisation set up in 1957, which itself grew from a charitable group in the 1940s. We’re now serving both Reading and Wokingham hospitals, and intend to expand our services and thus our charitable business even further: to better serve all those in the hospitals. Our expenditure in 2024 was £366k, and we have plans to expand our business and fundraising operations outside of hospital premises.
The role and what we are looking for in a new trustee
Trustees are the people who make the top-level decisions for our charity. Our Board includes people with experience and skills in the services we provide to those in hospitals, and we’d expect new trustees to have empathy with our cause and our beneficiaries.
We are looking for experience of developing a business, not necessarily in the not-for-private-profit sector, identifying new opportunities and relationships, creating and implementing our new marketing strategy.
We are a charity not a business, but we apply business principles to governing our organisation. We are looking for people from a variety of backgrounds to join our charity. We want to expand the diversity of our board, in all meanings of the word, and strongly welcome applications from people from less-represented groups.
You don’t necessarily need prior experience of charity trusteeship, as full induction to our organisation will be provided, plus specialist support as a new trustee, including access to external training.
If you can think strategically and plan long-term, you have the primary skills needed by our trustees; you’ll also need to be able to work collectively with other Board members.
Trustees are not be expected to get involved in the organisation’s operations on a day-to-day basis; however, regular contact and liaison with other trustees and employees is expected.
We ask for no more than ten hours of your time per month, which includes all meetings, discussions, etc. You will need access to digital communications, as much of our charity’s business is run that way.
How to apply
This appointment is being managed for us by inVOLve Community Services, a charity-support organisation, who offer a no-obligation discussion by phone or video. A detailed Role Description and Skills Specification is available.
Trustee appointments are subject to satisfactory references.
Your CV or similar will be read by our existing trustees, and an interview offered as soon as mutually convenient.

We are seeking to appoint a voluntary Trustee for our charity who will also take up the role as our secretary.
We are looking for someone who wants to make a difference; helping build & grow the charity with the benefit of good governance.
Is this role for me?
As you would expect the secretary role will be responsible for supporting the Chair by making sure meetings are communicated, agendas are developed, & that minutes are produced with actions followed up. It would also involve maintaining a well-organised filing system of critical documents, policies & governance records, as well as ensuring compliance with reporting requirements such as Charity Commission filings. But this will not be a case of walking in & taking over the reins; we are going through a period of change & are looking for someone who will help us put in place the processes & controls needed for a well-run charity.
We are looking for a secretary who will push us & keep us on track. Make no mistake, it will certainly be hard work initially as it will take some time as we work to get everything in place, so you would need to be ready to commit to this. Once things become established then it would be up to you just how much time you want to dedicate beyond keeping everything on track.
Who is The League of Friends of St Mark’s Hospital Maidenhead?
The League of Friends have been supporting patients in St Mark’s Hospital for over 50 years, helping to provide equipment & an environment that enhances their comfort & care.
We maintain the gardens in the Henry Tudor ward & in Out-Patients, including providing outdoor furniture & planting, as well as providing a range of daily newspapers & making sure a nice cup of Nespresso coffee is available too. We have also helped the hospital over recent years by providing; a cardiac resuscitator, an ECG module, hydraulic treatment couches, specialised podiatry & audiology equipment, and software for a Dexta bone density scanner.
Why are you recruiting now?
While we are proud that we have been supporting St Mark’s for over 50 years, including during the COVID19 pandemic, we have recognised that we now need to need to “regroup”.
The charity has identified 2 immediate objectives; firstly, to develop our fundraising efforts as these have slipped since the pandemic, & secondly, to introduce standards of governance which ensure we fulfil statutory obligations & achieve best practice within a small charity environment.
We have recently appointed a new Treasurer to strengthen financial controls, & a further trustee with responsibility for developing our marketing effort which will provide a firm footing for fund raising. Further trustees have recently been appointed which support our charitable giving within the hospital. But we recognise that we are lacking the skills, knowledge & disciplines that a good secretary can provide.
What sort of person do I need to be?
- Hungry for change
- Tenacious
- Pragmatic
- Detailed & meticulous
- Knowledgeable of charity regulations & best practice - or not frightened to find them out & go on to implement them
- A self-starter who is able to drive us towards the changes needed
- A strong communicator
- Tech savvy – able to use MS office & have the ability to work online as needed
How much time would I need to dedicate?
You would need to have enough time to arrange, plan & follow up on Trustee meetings. At present these typically take place in alternate months but there may be a need to move these to monthly as the charity grows. One of these meetings will also include the AGM. Meetings are held in Maidenhead.
As secretary there will be other activities which will require action between meetings, for example, keeping the Charity Commission updated, maintaining policies & renewing insurance. While these activities are not onerous their timely upkeep is obviously important.
One of the key features of this appointment will be the need to drive change & establish good governance within the charity. Although we are looking for someone who can help move this forward at speed, we also recognise that “Rome wasn’t built in a day”!
What will I get out of it?
- Helping to make the lives of patients in hospital more bearable is hugely rewarding.
- The role will be CV enhancing, demonstrating valuable skills & qualities to potential employers; particularly being able to illustrate your ability to influence & to drive change
Is there anything else you think I should know?
Apart from attending our meetings in Maidenhead all other work should be able to be done from home.
This is a volunteer role & necessary expenses incurred will be reimbursed.
We support patients in St Mark's hospital to enhance their comfort and care

Our Trustees play a big part in helping us to achieve our strategic objectives and meet the needs of those we’re committed to support: engineers and their families worldwide.
What will you be doing?
Our Trustees get together five times a year for a mixture of virtual and in-person meetings (four Board meetings and one training day with staff), as well as spending time before meetings reading the Board papers and preparing, totaling a commitment of 50–70 hours a year of their time.
They’re responsible for providing strategic direction and making key decisions to ensure we’re delivering on our objectives.
They serve on three Committees.
What are we looking for?
Financial and audit/risk experience (a recognised financial qualification is desirable) and strong knowledge of Statements of Recommended Practice, charity and company law and United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice.
Experience gained as Trustee or Non-Executive Director in a similarly complex service-orientated organisation.
Strong understanding and acceptance of the legal duties, responsibilities and liabilities of Trusteeship.
What difference will you make?
Being a Trustee can bring unique opportunities
Develop skills you wouldn’t necessarily build in other roles, learn from and work with people from all walks of life. On top of this, you’ll also:
use your passion to help build a brighter future for engineers and their families
play a big role in strategically leading our charity
