Cambridge Women’s Aid has been supporting women and children affected by domestic abuse for over 40 years. We are currently searching for new trustees to join our board.
Effective governance is key to the success and sustainability of our organisation. As a trustee, you will be able to use your experience, energy and creativity to shape our approach and help us to achieve our mission. There is no such thing as a ‘typical’ trustee, and you don’t necessarily need previous board experience; we welcome women with a diverse range of backgrounds, skills and life experiences, who can commit and contribute to the success of our work.
At the moment, our Board of Trustees is particularly looking to build expertise in Legal, Finance, HR & Safeguarding. However, we welcome applications from all women with a commitment to our work and are interested in hearing about full range of skills applicants can bring.
As a trustee, you will receive training to carry out your role, have opportunities to represent CWA in the community, and be part of a supportive and welcoming board. Being a trustee gives you the chance to gain experience in strategic planning, develop skills in new areas, and add significant value to a thriving charity.
Commitment
Trustees are expected to attend and minimum of four in person board meetings per year, plus one away day and one Annual General Meeting. Most trustees will get involved in the work of sub-committees, such as the Employment or Finance groups, and will attend around six sub-committee meetings per year. The minimum commitment is 3 years.
Location
Cambridge city
Remuneration
This is a voluntary position, but expenses are reimbursed.
How to Apply
For more information about the trustee role, and to apply, please email to request an application pack from our website.
CWA values diversity promotes equality and challenges discrimination of all forms. We encourage and welcome applications from women of all backgrounds. We particularly welcome applicants from minoritised women and younger women. We also welcome applicants with lived experience of VAWG services (though we ask that applicants have not accessed our service within the last two years).
This service is run by women for women and is therefore restricted to women applicants under the Equality Act 2010, Schedule 9, and Part 1. Section 7(2) e of the Sex Discrimination Act 1975 apply. The post is exempt from the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act.
An enhanced DBS (Disclosure Barring Service) disclosure will be required for this role.
About the Role
As a Trustee, you will play a vital role in the governance and strategic direction of Sense. You will work alongside a diverse and committed Board to ensure the charity continues to deliver high-quality, person-centred support to disabled people with complex needs.
We are looking to recruit up to four new Trustees to join our Board. The Board meets a minimum of four times a year in person — twice in Birmingham and twice in London — with an annual away day, which may be residential. Meetings are held during the working day and typically last around 6 hours, including breaks.
In addition to Board meetings, you will also join at least one of the following committees, which meet online four times a year, online, in the lead-up to each Board meeting:
- Finance and Audit Committee
- Operations Committee
- Engagement Committee
- Nominations and Remuneration Committee
As Sense is both a registered charity and a company, Trustees also serve as Company Directors, with names publicly listed at Companies House and the Charity Commission.
Expertise and knowledge and experience
We are particularly looking for the following experience for new trustees;
- Finance
- Social Care
- Campaigning
- Fundraising
- Safeguarding
Your Impact
As a Trustee, you will help shape Sense’s strategic priorities, hold leadership to account, and act as a champion for the values and mission of the organisation. You will also have the opportunity to engage with Sense’s services directly, visit local centres or shops, and see first-hand the difference we make.
Access and Inclusion
We are committed to making this opportunity fully accessible. Sense will cover all reasonable adjustments required to enable disabled people to fully participate as Trustees. We recognise that needs may change over time, and we are prepared to provide ongoing support and flexibility.
We strongly encourage applications from disabled people and women, as well as individuals from other underrepresented backgrounds, to help us build a more diverse and inclusive Board.
If you’re ready to use your experience, insight or passion to help break down barriers and make a real difference, we would love to hear from you.
About Sense
Every disabled person should have the opportunity to connect with others and be included in the world. Which is why we’re here, in people’s homes, centres and communities, focusing on the things a person can do, not what they can’t. We celebrate the moments of connection that bring more joy to life. Together, we always find a way, no matter how many barriers a person might face.
Sense is a leading disability charity with extensive knowledge and expertise in delivering personalised, creative and flexible support for disabled people with complex needs. Our tailored approach ensures that every person is empowered to live fully at every stage of life.
This is an exciting time to join Sense as we continue to deliver our bold strategy, guided by our vision of a world without limits for disabled people with complex needs. As a Trustee, you will help shape and support Sense on this journey, ensuring our plans are ambitious, inclusive and achievable. You will play a key role in guiding the organisation’s future direction, ensuring our strategy reflects the voices and experiences of the people we support and that our work continues to deliver lasting impact.
