Public affairs volunteer roles

About Us

Age UK London is a charity that campaigns for an age-friendly London. We have been working to promote the interests of older Londoners for over 20 years and support the network of London Age UK’s and other older people’s organisations across all 33 boroughs.

Our CEO, Abigail Wood, joined us in 2020 and under her leadership Age UK London has gone through a significant period of consolidation and transformational change, streamlining activities and organisational structure, whilst maximising our impact.

Background to the role

A highly successful recent strategy day highlighted that the staff and trustees are closely aligned and have a strong sense of being part of one team, all pulling in one direction. We want to build on that by welcoming new Board members with key skills and expertise to enhance and further sharpen our work.

The Age UK London board currently comprises seven trustees, one of whose term will finish at our AGM in the autumn. Our chair, Tony Burch, took on the role in December 2024, having been a trustee since 2018. Our former chair, Imogen Clark, left having stayed on as a trustee until our CEO had returned from maternity leave in February of this year, and two other trustees resigned earlier this year for personal reasons.

We are a friendly, committed and effective board, and we foster a productive relationship with the Age UK London CEO and her team. We are passionate about campaigning to improve the lives of older Londoners.

We’re now keen to welcome someone who brings skills and experience in campaigning, public affairs and policy. Given that this is the key focus of our work, it’s important that our Board is replete with a deep understanding of the challenges as well as the possibilities for influence and change. 

If you feel you are the right person to join our board, we would be delighted to hear from you!

Being patient and empathetic is crucial in order to deal with sensitive issues and topics. Additionally, you should be motivated and reliable to ensure the coffee sessions run smoothly.

At Hampton Trust, our vision is for everyone to live free from violence and abuse – and we need you to help us achieve this. Whether you are an experienced Trustee or wanting to take your first step at Board level, we want to hear from you!

What will you be doing?

As a Trustee of Hampton Trust, you will play a vital role in shaping the future of a bold and innovative charity that works to break the cycle of abuse. Your contribution will directly support our mission to create safe, trauma-informed spaces, hold perpetrators to account, and help rebuild lives.

Trustees help steer our long-term strategy and provide critical oversight to ensure our resources are used effectively and ethically. You’ll bring your skills and experience to scrutinise board papers, guide decisions, support internal governance, and help evaluate our impact. Whether you bring expertise in criminal justice, income generation, policy, marketing, digital, or connections to the NHS, education or youth sectors, your input will be instrumental in helping us meet challenges and seize opportunities.

You will also influence how we develop sustainable organisational growth, ensure compliance with charity law, and uphold our values across every aspect of our work. Drawing on your networks and insight, you will help advocate for the charity and support wider engagement with our partners, funders, and the public.

This is a chance to use your voice and leadership to shape innovative interventions and influence real change—both in systems and in the lives of individuals. You will be joining a passionate, diverse, and forward-thinking board committed to building safer communities and driving long-lasting, transformative change.

What are we looking for?

We are looking for Trustees who bring strategic insight, sound judgement, and a strong commitment to social justice. To help us meet current challenges and realise new opportunities, we are particularly seeking individuals with skills or experience in one or more of the following areas:

• Criminal justice and/or domestic abuse
• Commissioning, grant funding or income generation
• Policy and public affairs
• Marketing, communications and public relations
• Digital transformation
• NHS, education, or youth sector knowledge and networks
• Sustainable organisational growth

We welcome applications from people with strong governance, leadership, and financial oversight experience, as well as those with lived experience of domestic abuse.

We value empathy, innovation, and the ability to think independently while working collaboratively. We are especially keen to increase the diversity of our Board and encourage applications from people in their 20s and 30s, and from underrepresented ethnic, religious and socio-economic backgrounds.

What difference will you make?

As a Trustee of Hampton Trust, your impact will be both strategic and deeply human. You will help shape the future of a charity committed to supporting people affected by harm, abuse and adversity—ensuring our work remains effective, sustainable, and aligned with our mission.

By contributing your knowledge and expertise, you'll help us make informed, ethical decisions and strengthen our long-term vision. Trustees play a vital role in developing and steering our strategy, overseeing finances, evaluating performance, and identifying risk and opportunity. You’ll guide our leadership, ensuring we stay focused on achieving real, lasting change for the communities we serve.

You will help safeguard the charity’s values and credibility—ensuring compliance with relevant laws and regulations, and that resources are used efficiently and responsibly. Drawing on your own networks, you’ll help extend our reach and influence.

The role is hands-on and rewarding: you’ll review and scrutinise board papers, actively participate in quarterly (hybrid) meetings, and may offer training, mentoring, or tools that strengthen our internal capacity. Whether it's through sharing specialist knowledge, offering critical oversight, or simply supporting our team with empathy and integrity, your presence on the board will help ensure we remain a resilient, forward-thinking organisation.

Your impact will be felt not only in our governance, but in the lives we help change.
