Closing Date: 9am, Monday, 14th September
Interview Dates: Week commencing Monday, 5th October
New Trustees will be confirmed at our Annual General Meeting on Saturday 24th October 2026
LGBT Foundation is governed by a board of trustees who also serve as directors of the company. Our various arrangements for governance are brought together in one place within our governance manual, which is reviewed on a bi-annual basis, and amended as and when applicable. This helps to ensure we remain responsible, robust and resilient.
The board of LGBT Foundation is the first and last decision-making mechanism of the charity and trustees also constitute the membership of the charity. The board has several mechanisms in place to consult with key stakeholders, (such as staff, volunteers and service users), to inform our work and decision-making.
All new trustees are required to undertake an induction programme, including the provision of an extensive induction pack, staff presentations, and peer mentoring as desired. Trustee training needs are assessed, and a programme of internal and external training arranged on an annual basis to meet these needs.
Trustees are not remunerated, but reasonable expenses to attend meetings can be claimed.
Trustees are ultimately accountable for the organisation and their governance responsibilities include:
- Setting and maintaining vision, mission, and values
- Developing strategy together with the CEO
- Ensuring suitable policies and documents exist
- Ensuring compliance with the law, the governing document and charitable objects
- Maintaining proper financial oversight
- Maintaining effective board performance including board appraisals
- Promoting the organisation and protecting its reputation
- Recruiting and supporting the CEO
Role Accountabilities
Trustees are expected to contribute around 8 hours per month, including:
- Quarterly Board meetings (usually on a Saturday, occasionally a weeknight evening, in person)
- Annual AGM (quarterly preceding October’s Board meeting, in person)
- Service on 2 standing committees (4-6 times per year, remotely, weeknight evenings)
- Participation in selected events, learning, or campaigns
Trustees need to allow enough time to prepare for meetings by reading the paperwork, and doing any other preparatory reading, research or thinking to fully engage and contribute to robust discussion and decision-making.
To support the work of our board, we have three committees. These are:
Fundraising & Marketing Committee – maintains an overview of strategic fundraising, marketing, and communications.
Finance, Audit, Risk & Governance Committee – maintains a scrutiny and review role to ensure effective financial, people and systems management and ensuring that effective governance structures are in place across the 6organisation.
People, Performance & Resources Committee – maintains an overview of project, people and programme performance, ensuring that (i) quality is maintained and/or increased; (ii) set targets are achieved; and (iii) ideas for innovation are explored.
Person Specification
We seek trustees who offer a blend of technical expertise, values-driven motivation, and community alignment.
Personal Attributes:
- Commitment to and deep resonance with LGBT Foundation’s mission and values
- Strong commitment to championing equality, inclusion and human rights
- Commitment to the values of accountability, probity, openness and equality of opportunity
- Ability to listen sensitively to the views of others
- Willingness to challenge and question
- Ability to work as an effective member of the board, of whose members are equally and jointly responsible for its decisions
- Clear understanding of the responsibilities of a trustee and sufficient time/commitment to fulfil the role
While the trustees are not the day-to-day executive team for LGBT Foundation, similar professional skills and experiences are required, such as finance, HR, communications, fundraising, representation and networking across the private, voluntary and public sectors.
To complement the existing skills and experience of the Board, we are particularly looking for applicants with experience in:
- Fundraising
- Changemaking, marketing, and communications
- Financial management, audit, risk and procurement
- Legal and regulatory expertise (charity, employment, governance)
- AI and technology
LGBT Foundation actively seeks to maintain a diverse board representative of the communities we serve. We are taking positive action to encourage applications from people of colour (PoC) and other racially minoritised communities, trans*, non-binary, younger (aged 30 and under) and/or older people (aged 50+), disabled people, and people with experience of navigating asylum or refugee systems, to improve the representation of colleagues from these communities on our board.
*Trans is an umbrella & inclusive term used to describe people whose gender identity differs from that which they were assigned at birth; including non-binary people, cross-dressers, and those who partially or incompletely identify with their sex assigned at birth.

About Lights Up
Lights Up was established shortly before the COVID-19 pandemic to support theatre and creative activity. The timing was challenging: theatres subsequently remained closed for a prolonged period and the environment in which the charity had been established changed considerably.
The existing trustees now believe that Lights Up's charitable structure and fundraising capability could be put to wider social use. In particular, we are exploring an evolution of the charity that would enable it to provide umbrella funding and support for organisations and initiatives tackling homelessness.
No change of objects has yet been made. As part of this process, and following discussions with the Charity Commission, we are recruiting a new Board of Trustees before the proposed changes are considered and progressed.
The opportunity
We are looking for new trustees to help oversee the next stage of Lights Up's development.
One of the founding trustees will remain with the charity in an operational role as Executive Founder, reporting to and accountable to the Board. The other founding trustee will retire from the Board.
The new trustees will therefore have a genuine governance role: overseeing the charity's strategy, finances, regulatory compliance and future direction, including consideration and implementation of any approved changes to its charitable objects.
If the proposed new model proceeds, the charity does not intend to make decisions about the distribution of homelessness funding based solely on its own expertise. Funding allocations will be informed by advice from an appropriate independent third-party expert with relevant sector knowledge.
Who are we looking for?
We would particularly welcome applications from people interested in becoming a trustee for the first time. Previous charity or trustee experience is not required.
We are looking for people with sound judgement, integrity and an interest in using their skills to support effective charitable governance.
Experience in finance, law, governance, grant-making, fundraising, homelessness, social impact or the voluntary sector would be useful, but is not essential.
We are also seeking a Chair of Trustees, for whom previous governance or relevant board-level experience is expected.
Commitment
The roles are voluntary and primarily governance-focused. We anticipate approximately four Board meetings each year, predominantly held remotely, together with occasional additional input when required.
Why join now?
This is an opportunity to join a small charity at an exciting point in its development.
Rather than recruiting trustees to oversee an established model, we are inviting new Board members to help scrutinise, shape and govern the charity's proposed next chapter.
We want to be transparent about where Lights Up has come from, why change is being considered, and the responsibility the new Board will have in determining how that change is taken forward.
How to apply
Please send us a short expression of interest outlining your background, what you could bring to the Board and why the role interests you.
Please indicate if you would also like to be considered for the role of Chair of Trustees.
The client requests no contact from agencies or media sales.
Thank you!

Under the charity we also run The Patchworking Academy which offers the opportunity to gain an internationally recognised City & Guilds qualification in Practical Horticulture Skills. The Academy seeks to address inclusion via employment-ready qualifications for adults facing challenging circumstances. With the guidance of experienced and highly qualified therapeutic horticulture tutors, learners work at their own pace with a small group of other interested learners.
We are looking for a chair with some charity and governance experience who is
● able to quickly grasp what our values are and how we operate
● used to managing change
● happy in a leadership role,
● committed to a collaborative way of working
● comfortable dealing with finances (preferably in the charity sector)
It is a lovely role for the right person so do get in touch for a chat if you think you might be interested. There is a full role description available.
Potential candidates are invited to have an informal conversation with our current Chair before submitting an application.
