About Roots Academy. 

Roots Academy’s Vision.

About the National Biodiversity Network Trust

Our vision is of nature thriving everywhere, in all its diversity. We’re a small, specialist charity with the mission of “making data work for nature”. We believe that the adage “What gets measured gets done” applies in nature conservation just as it applies in business, and we take pride in providing the biodiversity data needed for nature’s recovery: data to plan, to set targets, and to measure and monitor progress.

We manage the UK’s largest partnership for nature – the National Biodiversity Network – which brings together more than 200 organisations with an interest in collecting, sharing, and using biodiversity data. Our data portal, the NBN Atlas, is one of the world’s largest publicly accessible sources of biodiversity data, and is relied upon by conservationists, researchers, and educators across the UK and beyond.

Much of the data we share is created by the UK’s remarkable community of volunteer wildlife recorders. We make sure that all their hard work has the greatest possible impact for nature. We also manage iNaturalistUK, one of the fastest growing recording apps, with more than 80,000 users.

We have four strategic ambitions, as set out in our 2022-27 Strategy:

• The NBN Atlas is the ‘go to’ place for sharing, finding, and accessing UK biodiversity data.
• Biodiversity data is providing the evidence needed for nature’s recovery.

South Cumbria MAT are seeking committed volunteers from a range of backgrounds to join as Trustees on their Board of Trustees.  Trustees are critical to the success of the Trust. Although they are volunteers, they provide challenge and monitoring. They ask questions and probe the information and data they have been provided with. Trustees are often seen as the ‘critical friend’ to ensure leaders are responding to the challenges and key priorities. Being a Trustee is supportive within a group of other volunteers who work together as a collective voice.  You do not need experience of being a trustee. South Cumbria MAT will support all new Trustees to develop in their role as well as additional training where needed.

Trustees come from many backgrounds. We are seeking individuals who may be able to offer expertise in the following areas:

• Education outcomes

• Special education needs

• Governance and compliance including experience of chairing boards

• School improvement

• Health and safety and facilities

• Finance, estates, and/or resources

South Cumbria MAT is a multi-academy trust and therefore registered as a Company Limited by Guarantee with charitable status. Due to this company status Trustees are registered with Companies House.
