Are you excited by Birthrights’ ambitions to work towards long term, systemic change that empowers women and birthing people? This is an exciting time to join our organisation as we embark on a new 10-year strategy.
Birthrights was founded in 2013 with the understanding that at the heart of the poor experiences and outcomes of maternity care for so many, is a consistent failure to listen to the voices of women and birthing people and a complete disregard for their fundamental human rights. Our work has never been more urgent.
We are looking for people willing to bring energy, enthusiasm and commitment to the role, and who will broaden the diversity of thinking on our board. In particular, we are keen to hear from candidates with specialist skills in the following areas:
Finance, with a view to taking on the role of Treasurer
Fundraising
Legal ideally in the Human Rights field
HR
Campaigning
As a trustee you will work with a dynamic and passionate team of Trustees and Employees who champion the rights of women and birthing people. Come and join our small and caring team of change makers!
Our Board of Trustees meets quarterly, mostly virtually but we like to meet 1-2 times in person either in London or the midlands (as this is nearest to where most are currently based).
We would love for you to apply for this role which you can do by visiting our website and downloading the trustee recruitment pack for the full information about the role, the requirements, the person specification and more. The details of how to apply for the role are also contained within this pack.
If you would like to find out more about Birthrights and becoming a trustee, please register to attend one of our online information sessions on:
Tuesday 4 June, 12.30 - 1.30
Wednesday 12 June, 18.30 - 19.30
Please visit our website to book your place!
Depending on the number of applications received, we may bring the closing date forward. We therefore encourage early applications.

Active Sussex is the brand name of the Sussex County Sports Partnership Trust (SCSPT), the countywide organisation for sport and physical activity recognised by the national body Sport England.
Active Sussex encompasses the counties of East and West Sussex, as well as the City of Brighton & Hove. We work with a variety of sectors, groups and partners who want similar outcomes. This includes the charitable, community and voluntary sector, including our activity providers; health and care partnerships and networks; those who support children and young people both within and outside educational settings; local authorities, including public health and wellbeing teams; parks and open spaces; leisure trusts and the gatekeepers to outdoor spaces.
Predominantly funded by Sport England, we contribute to the government’s agenda to increase the number of people participating in sport and physical activity nationally.
We are seeking to recruit three (voluntary) Non-Executive Directors, including an Independent Chair, who also act as charity trustees with the skills, experience and qualifications noted below:
- Financial Management and Accounting
- Human Resources
- Engaging and listening to communities
Active Sussex aspires to have a diverse Board, and welcomes applications from people who are involved (or would like to be) in our networks, particularly those from ethnically diverse communities, people living with a long term health condition and/or disability and self-identifying women. Given less than 3% of charity trustees are under 30 and as such are missing young people’s perspectives, we encourage young people (over 18) to apply to increase representation of this age group on our board.
Active Sussex's aim is to increase participation in sport and physical activity at a local level.
