We are looking for people with or without board level experience, and we would welcome applications from all ages and backgrounds.
In order to continue to enhance the diversity of our board, we would particularly like to hear from people from ethnically marginalised groups, particularly Black African backgrounds, LGBTQ+ people, people with physical disabilities, and other marginalised groups, and especially those with direct experience of services provided by our hospice.
On this occasion and following a recent skills audit of our current trustees, we are particularly looking for people with expertise in any of the following areas:
- Finance and accounting (with a view to succession planning for our current Treasurer)
- Co-production, community engagement and community development
- Property and estate management

Trustees are expected to attend, in person or via tele-conferencing:
• Sessions agreed as part of each trustee’s personalised induction programme.
• Bi-monthly board meetings.

Where they are willing and able, trustees may be asked to join one of the board sub-committees.
Whilst this is an unpaid, voluntary role, out-of-pocket expenses will be reimbursed. A personalised induction programme, training, support and mentorship will be provided.
