National Ugly Mugs (NUM) is seeking people with a passion for sex workers’ rights and
safety to join our Board of Trustees.
About NUM and the role of trustees
NUM is a UK-wide charity working with sex workers to end all forms of violence against them. We design and deliver safety tools, carry out research, and provide specialist support services for people in adult industries. We serve sex workers of all genders, ages, abilities, cultures, and modes of work. Our secure digital reporting and alerting system warns communities about dangerous individuals, while our experiential support staff and trained Independent Sexual Violence Advisors (ISVAs) offer one-to-one, trauma-informed advocacy. We ensure sex workers have the information and resources they need to make informed choices about their lives.
Our wellbeing drop-in service (first launched in Glasgow) has now expanded to Manchester and London, alongside the addition of our dedicated vocational support programme for people looking to transition, diversify, or leave sex work. Our racial justice programme reclaims narratives on sex work and race through in-depth conversations, research, and collaborations between racialised sex workers and anti-racist activists, focusing on experiences across five key areas of public life. We conduct research, deliver education packages for professionals, and advocate for policy change to improve safety, rights, and recognition for sex workers across the UK.
We place lived experience at the heart of all services and decision-making, ensuring our
work reflects the needs, priorities, and expertise of the communities we serve.
Trustees at NUM play a vital role in helping us fulfil our core mission of ending all forms of violence against sex workers. They support NUM as an organisation and the members of the NUM team by providing support, advice and guidance through our day-to-day operations and the overall strategic vision of the charity. Some of that takes place at quarterly trustee meetings, where the CEO reports on NUM’s work and brings decisions and choices to the board for discussion and advice, and some takes place between meetings when individual trustees have skills or experience that can support team members and have the time to take on a supportive or mentoring role. Our current trustees bring with them a wide range of
experience from sex worker organising and advocacy, media and public engagement,
campaigning and social justice, academia, finance, and other aspects of the third sector.
They also oversee legally required duties such as approving the annual report, reviewing
risks and finances, and ensuring the charity complies with the law and meets its charitable
objectives.
Trustee roles are voluntary positions. However, NUM will pay for any reasonable expenses incurred as part of the role.
Who we’re looking for
The most important thing is that you believe in NUM’s work and want to join us to help us
continue this. We need people willing to volunteer their time to shape our practice and our services, and guide the charity as we continue to meet the needs of sex workers across the UK.
We particularly welcome applications from those with:
- Lived experience within sex worker communities
- Legal expertise (particularly relating to organisations, governance, and charity law)
- HR expertise (including recruitment, compliance, and employment law)
- Fundraising and income generation expertise
This experience may come from trustee roles, management positions in third-sector organisations, or other relevant voluntary or lived experience. You don’t need prior trustee experience — what matters most is commitment, skills, and a willingness to learn.
We value skills, competencies, and lived experience over job titles, and encourage applicants to draw on the full range of their background — including voluntary roles or sex work-based examples from their working history. We are looking for people who understand the realities of working within a charity and who can bring fresh ideas, insight, and expertise to support NUM’s mission.
If you don't have the specific skills listed above but believe you could contribute in other ways, we’d be happy to hear from you — please get in touch to discuss.
We are looking for Trustees who are proactive and solutions-focused. Individuals who, when they see a challenge, are willing to take the lead in mobilising others and driving practical action. Someone who doesn’t wait to be asked, but steps in with energy, clarity and a positive mindset to help move things forward collectively for NUM and in the pursuit of our
charitable goals.
Other skills and attributes that we would like from any prospective trustees are:
- A strong commitment to the mission and core values of NUM
- A high degree of integrity
- The ability to think strategically and plan for the future with good judgement
- Critical thinking skills
- Creativity
- The ability to work well as part of a team to collectively make decisions surrounding
- NUM’s future work, vision and strategy
- A willingness to undertake any necessary training
- An understanding of safeguarding
- An understanding and acceptance of the legal duties, responsibilities and liabilities of being a charity trustee
We know that great boards bring together a mix of perspectives, skills, and experiences - both lived and learned. We’re especially keen to hear from people whose voices are often underrepresented in leadership, including (but not limited to) people with experience in the sex industry, people of colour, LGBTQIA+ people, disabled people, people under 30 years old, and those from working-class backgrounds. If you care about our mission and meet the core criteria, please consider applying - even if you don’t tick every single box.
The responsibilities of trustees at NUM include:
- Attend four regular board meetings a year (online and/or in person)
- Advise on, and help develop, organisational strategy and delivery, including policies that fall within your expertise
- Ensure compliance with governing documents and the law
- Ensure accountability to funders, NUM members and wider movement
- Maintain proper fiscal oversight, signing off and scrutinising reporting against budgets
- Oversee the management of risks to NUM’s funding, reputation and delivery
- Exemplify NUM’s values and culture through ways of working and interacting
- Maintain effective board performance (including appointing new board members)
- Effectively work with, and respect the expertise of the NUM staff and volunteer team
We estimate that the role will require approximately 1–2 days per month, including quarterly meetings and some responsiveness between these. The standard term for a Trustee is 3 years.
To apply, please send the following to to LauraC[at]nationaluglymugs[dot]org, or apply via the CharityJobs website.
A 2-page CV
A cover letter explaining why you want to be part of the NUM board (max. 800 words)

ECU is a small, dynamic non-profit working to transform the economy so that everyone has the freedom and security to live a good life.
ECU’s board members are responsible for ensuring that ECU is well-run and delivers on our ambition to accelerate the transition to a fair, sustainable and resilient economy. They are responsible for fulfilling the legal duties of a Company Director, as set out by Companies House.

This is an exciting time to join ECU.

Our board is committed, collaborative and inclusive, with a strong understanding of its role and remit, and a culture of open dialogue. Our work is challenging, fascinating, and fulfilling – and, with rising levels of inequality, an unfolding climate emergency, overstretched public services and a growing concentration of corporate power, it couldn’t be more important.

InStudents
A global social enterprise that empowers students to lead local projects, dismantling educational barriers to ensure equitable access to opportunities for all.
-
Lack of Access: Students in rural and underserved regions lack quality career guidance and opportunities equivalent to their privileged peers.
-
Employability Gap: Students from less prestigious universities often struggle to gain the real-world work experience and confidence needed for employment.
-
Ineffective Aid: Many top-down educational solutions fail because they lack crucial local context, cultural understanding, and input from the communities they aim to serve.
We are building a global, student-led movement for educational equity, empowering local leaders to solve local challenges.
-
Equal Opportunities Project (EQOP): We deliver free, career-focused courses to students in underserved regions using accessible technology like WhatsApp. The content is co-created with UK university and corporate partners.
-
Impact Champions Project: We are establishing a global network of student-led societies on university campuses. Each society identifies and tackles local education issues with our support, creating a sustainable, "locally led, globally connected" model for change.
Hello! We believe that a student's potential should be determined by their ambition, not their background. Right now, millions of students in underserved communities are being left behind, lacking the guidance and opportunities they need to thrive.
InStudents is changing that. We empower students to become leaders who solve educational challenges within their own communities, from running career courses via WhatsApp in rural India to building a global network of on-campus "Impact Champions".
We're looking for passionate people to help us scale this student-led movement. Whether you have skills in marketing, content creation, project management, or mentoring, your time and expertise can directly help a student discover a new career path or gain the confidence to lead. Join us and help build a world where every student has the chance to succeed.
Education Equity Content Strategist (EQOP)
Volunteer Role Description (remote, unpaid)
Imagine creating a course that a student in a remote village can access on a simple smartphone, a course that opens their eyes to a future they never thought possible. Our Equal Opportunities Project (EQOP) has already reached over 10,000 students in rural India, and that’s where you come in.
In this role, you will:
-
Research and design new, career-focused mini-courses on topics from financial literacy to social entrepreneurship.
-
Write clear, engaging, and inspiring content specifically tailored for a youth audience and delivery via accessible tech like WhatsApp.
-
Collaborate with our university partners to transform their expert knowledge into powerful, bite-sized learning experiences.
Your words will directly bridge the opportunity gap for thousands of students, providing them with the knowledge and confidence to pursue their dreams.

The Charity Evaluation Working Group is a community of 300+ charity sector evaluators. Our mission to empower charities, (and other purpose-driven organisations), to create positive change through effective evaluation.
We are looking for passionate individuals to join our board as trustees and chair / co-chairs. This is a unique opportunity to lead our next chapter and strengthen our community.
We’re specifically looking to recruit people who are not only passionate about the use of data and evidence, but bring a wider range of skills to the board, including;
- research and evaluation
- income generation
- comms and marketing
- advocacy and influence
Our trustees are based across the UK, so all of our meetings are online. We’re a small charity, which means that we’re looking for people who are happy to be hands-on.
We would like to maintain the diversity of our board and therefore would particularly like to hear from people from the global majority, lower socioeconomic backgrounds, disabled people and those from other marginalised groups. We’re open to new perspectives and ways of thinking, so you don’t necessarily need to have worked in the third sector, understand evaluation, or have experience of being a trustee before.
For more information and to apply for these roles, please visit our website.
We are accepting applications until 5pm, Monday 22nd September 2025.
The client requests no contact from agencies or media sales.
