Job description

Founding Trustees – No Guard Alone 

No Guard Alone is a newly forming charity being established to address mental health challenges in the UK security sector - a workforce of over 450,000 people exposed to isolation, risk, and repeated conflict, but with little sector-wide and bespoke support.

We are now recruiting founding trustees to help shape the organisation from the outset.

This is an opportunity to:

  • Build a charity at formation stage
  • Help define strategy, governance, and direction
  • Contribute to a meaningful and under-recognised area of need

We are particularly interested in experience in:
Governance, finance, fundraising, mental health, safeguarding, digital, research, or the security sector.

We are building a balanced board and welcome both professional expertise and relevant lived experience.

Time commitment: 4–6 meetings per year
Location: UK (remote with some in person meetings where necessary)
Remuneration: This is a voluntary role with reimbursement of reasonable expenses

If you’re interested in helping build something from the ground up, get in touch for an initial conversation via 

Application Instructions

Please send a CV and covering letter explaining your motivation for joining the board of No Guard Alone and any skills that you think are relevant to the role.
