Trustee (Education Focus)

Are you passionate about education and inclusion? Do you want to make a difference to the lives of people with learning disabilities and autistic people?

Talkback UK is seeking a new Trustee with expertise in education, ideally within a Specialist Post-16 Institution, to join our Board. We are a charity dedicated to enabling people to live fulfilling lives through opportunities in learning, work, health, and community.

As a Trustee, you will bring knowledge and insight from the education sector – whether from schools, colleges, local authorities, or related fields – to help shape our strategy and strengthen our impact. You will play a key role in ensuring our programmes are relevant, ambitious, and responsive to the needs of the people we support.

We are looking for someone who:

·        Understands the education landscape, particularly around SEND and lifelong learning.

·        Can provide both support and constructive challenge at Board level.

·        Shares our commitment to equity, diversity, and inclusion

This is a voluntary role requiring attendance at four Board meetings a year (plus occasional subcommittee sessions). In return, you will join a passionate and supportive Board of Trustees, gain valuable governance experience, and contribute to changing lives for the better.
