About Classics for All
We believe that delving into the ancient world – through ancient history, classical civilisation, Latin and Ancient Greek – is not only enjoyable but also profoundly beneficial for all pupils. It enhances their cultural awareness, sharpens their language and analytical skills, and boosts their aspirations and achievements.
We are currently developing a new strategy, and as a trustee you will have an opportunity to help shape and deliver our new vision.
Vision
A future where every young person can unlock the wisdom, wonder, and imagination of the ancient world - regardless of background or circumstance.
Mission
We believe that discovering the ancient world can transform lives.
That’s why we work to:
- Ignite curiosity and a lifelong love of learning through the stories, ideas, and cultures of the ancient world
- Raise aspirations and broaden horizons by connecting students with the richness of the past
- Build cultural capital, giving every child access to the knowledge and confidence to thrive
- Empower state schools and teachers to bring Classics to life in every classroom
- Champion the value of Classics as a vital part of a broad, rich, and inclusive education
Our governance
Our Board members are all passionate about changing young people’s lives through accessing Classics education. They are responsible for the strategy and good governance of the charity, working in partnership with the Chief Executive.
There are up currently nine members of our Board, including the Chair and Treasurer. Trustees serve a three-year term which can be renewed.
The Board meets for formal meetings, both in-person and virtually, four times a year. Along with other duties, whilst voluntary, this represents a sizeable time commitment and hard work.
Board committees
In addition to the Board, there is a Finance and Operations Committee who meet quarterly. There are some other operational committees that support different aspects of our work. The committees are small groups of Trustees and volunteers, who focus on particular areas of the charity in line with strategic developments and make recommendations.
Trustees will be encouraged to join a committee best suited to their skills on appointment to the Board. Each committee will be led by a Chairperson who is responsible for the overall running of their committee.
- Finance and Operations Committee: develops and delivers the financial strategy of the charity, including the budget, financial controls and fundraising strategy. It is also responsible for risk management.
- Remuneration Committee: has oversight of the pay process for staff.
- Nominations Committee: responsible for leading Trustee recruitment.
- Philanthropy Advisory Group: supports our fundraising through activating networks and sharing ideas to develop our income generation activities.
- Events Committee: supports the ideation and delivery of events supporting our charitable goals.

Trustees have responsibility for ensuring the charity is well run, financially secure, and doing the work it is meant to be doing. There are specific legal and other duties. It is recommended you look at the Charity Commission ‘The Essential Trustee’ guidance, which can be found online here.
You can also view our profile on the Charity Commission website. If you want to find out more about our current Trustees, visit our website.

We are particularly interested in receiving applications from those who attended a UK state-maintained school, regardless of if Classics was offered at their own school.

So, if you're passionate about making a real difference, come and join us at Mast Cell Action. Together, we can create a brighter future for patients and doctors alike.
You will lead a team of passionate volunteers and interns, working closely with our Operations Director to drive our mission forward. One of your key responsibilities will be to nurture and grow our Medical Advisory Panel, working hand-in-hand with supportive doctors and medical institutions.

By effectively communicating the importance of MCAS and engaging with key stakeholders, you'll help improve patient outcomes and quality of life in the long run.
