Climate and nature are urgent, motivating issues, so we attract great volunteers. We want to fulfil our potential by making sure we get the best out of our fantastic people and all the future ones we attract by keeping them happy and active. That is the role.
What will you be doing?
EcoCounts is a group of volunteers working together to embody EcoCore’s approach to the climate crisis. EcoCore covers a lot of ground because the climate and biodiversity crisis is so all-encompassing, which means we have a lot of varied and different volunteer tasks available, ranging from carbon footprint data collection, setting up sub-teams of friends or colleagues or doing social media or running workshops.
Your responsibilities would be to create volunteer tasks from our work streams, which would include things like:
-
creating a role description for each volunteer task to give a good outline of everything required and expected
-
keeping track of what volunteers are active on
-
encouraging and inspiring volunteers to deliver on commitments
-
creating an incentives or rewards framework for volunteers, potentially working with supporting businesses to agree on gift vouchers, tokens etc
-
managing a small budget
-
building up a social network with events, collaborations and other inputs
-
using our social media accounts to advertise, to celebrate achievements etc
-
help other directors, trustees & secretary keep reporting, stats, and feedback on activities up-to-date
Goals
-
Our 2025 target is 100 people doing their carbon footprints
-
We’re looking for 20 coordinators
-
We have about a dozen volunteering roles to fill beyond the two above
What are we looking for?
-
You should be a people-person with experience of managing people. You should be happy to put in the time and effort communicating with the volunteers both all-together and individually in a way that gets the best results from them.
-
Personal change is only one of the five ways that we can change society - we don't focus on personal change alone, we want to change our community, our local businesses and our local government.
-
You should check out our manifesto on the About page to make sure you agree with the ways we advocate for the way forward in the climate crisis – are you happy what we suggest is one of the best approaches?
What difference will you make?
Society has got itself into a dangerous situation with the climate crisis and EcoCounts aims to create a way out. We need all sorts of different people, not just climate nerds and sustainability fanatics, although of course that doesn't hurt. The person we need right now is someone who knows what people need to keep them happy and effective as a volunteer for us.
Being a volunteer-based organisation at this stage still, that might make the volunteer chief of staff the most important person we have. Of course we all consider each other equal. Being small and dynamic means EcoCounts can offer the flexibility for you to do an excellent and fulfilling job.
Rewards
Once you have found your feet, we can offer references, recommendations or certifications on any of the public platforms that we use, like Linkedin and Reach Volunteer. We are also building a social network and plans for regular events, so we hope you will also find our group socially rewarding.

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.
Responsibilities of a Trustee
The Board of Trustees is legally responsible for the charity – this is a significant responsibility and one that should not be taken lightly. 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.
Trustees are volunteers; they are not paid. Reasonable expenses can, however, be reimbursed (e.g. to cover travel costs).
As a Trustee, you will be acting collectively as part of the Board of Trustees. Together, the Board is responsible for all of the points above.
Role Description
Trustees are expected to:
- set the vision, mission, values and objectives of the charity.
- develop the strategic direction of the charity; establish and monitor policies necessary for the proper governance of the charity’s activities.
- ensure that Classics for All operates in accordance with its governing documents, and is accountable to its regulators, funders, members and beneficiaries.
- maintain oversight of the management of the charity’s financial and other resources.
- support the Chief Executive.
- maintain oversight of risks faced by the charity.
- have regard for how the charity contributes to public benefit.
- appoint from its members representatives to other committees.
- ensure suitable representation of the charity to other bodies.
- promote Classics for All to external organisations, acting as spokespeople as necessary, and to review and develop partnerships with other organisations.
- to regularly appraise their own work, delegating responsibility to committees where necessary.
Skills
- We need a well-rounded Board with a diverse skill set. No one individual is expected to have experience in everything, therefore we are always on the lookout for individuals who bring a range of experiences and differing perspectives to the group.
- We are additionally interested in those who can bring experience from the legal world, digital transformation and marketing and communications.
Diversity and inclusion
As a social mobility charity, being inclusive is a fundamental value of Classics for All. We welcome applications from all eligible people and are particularly keen to receive applications from those who are from communities that are less represented within charity governance and Classics education. 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. You do not need to be a Classicist to join our Board – there will be no Latin tests!
Other requirements
