-
Co-developing Rooted’s brand identity in collaboration with the UX designer and project lead.

Creating a set of brand guidelines (colours, typography, icons, image style, tone).
-
Designing a logo that reflects Rooted’s emotional and botanical themes.

Can you bring your skills and experience to support the future of acupuncture?
Collectively, our members provide millions of treatments each year to the UK public. Traditional acupuncture is widely accepted in mainstream medicine and is formally recommended in NICE guidelines such as those for chronic primary pain. For this reason, acupuncture alleviates the suffering of a significant proportion of the UK public and it can do much more.
Your participation on this committee could make all the difference to our members and to the patients that they serve!
The British Acupuncture Council (BAcC) is the largest traditional acupuncture regulating body in the UK and the only body that maintains training and regulatory standards that meet the accreditation standards of the Professional Standards Authority for Health and Social Care (PSA).
However, for acupuncture to succeed, acupuncturists must be able to meet the significant challenges of maintaining and developing their clinical skills, running a private practice and supporting their own physical and mental health. The BAcC also has a mission to influence government and national healthcare policy to create better opportunities for those of all incomes and backgrounds to have access to acupuncture from trusted practitioners.
The BAcC Membership Services Committee (MSC) was established to aid the organisation to meet the needs of its practising membership. The committee is comprised of both practitioner members and non-practitioner lay representatives. It is chaired by a member of the governing board and supported by the BAcC CEO and staff.
As a lay member of the MSC, you will have the opportunity to make a real difference to the lives and opportunities of practising acupuncturists and in turn enhance the availability, effectiveness and safety of acupuncture to the UK public. The BAcC is looking for candidates who have an interest and motivation to support acupuncture and acupuncturists and have experience and skills in one or more relevant areas including:
- Delivering value to membership organisations
- Business development and promotion
- Political lobbying and influencing external stakeholders
- Experience of support for UK-based East Asian communities
If you are inspired to be part of this committee, please download the Candidate Pack and submit your CV and covering letter/supporting statement by 5pm on Tuesday 19 August 2025.

Treasurer vacancy at the Gender and Development Network
GADN brings together NGOs, consultants, academics, and activists committed to advancing women’s and girls’ rights, gender equality, and decolonised international development. Our vision is a world where social justice and gender equality prevail, and all women and girls can realise their rights free from discrimination.
We are now recruiting a Treasurer to join our Board of Trustees — a vital leadership role in the financial governance and future direction of our dynamic feminist network. Together with the Co-Chairs, the Treasurer is one of the Officers of the Board, a role which you can hold for a maximum of two 2-year terms. Trustees may serve a maximum of two 3-year terms.
As we continue working to decolonise our practice and build an anti-racist organisation, we actively welcome applications from Black women and Women of Colour who we recognise are under-represented in decision-making spaces in the UK international development sector.
About the role
As Treasurer, you will:
- Maintain strategic oversight of GADN’s financial affairs on behalf of the Board.
- Provide expert advice to Trustees and the Secretariat on financial planning and stewardship.
- Work closely with the Co-Directors and Secretariat to ensure sound financial systems and decision-making.
- Support the preparation of budgets, accounts, and key legal reporting.
This is a voluntary position requiring approximately 3 days per quarter, including an in-person meeting in London.
Who we’re looking for
We are seeking someone with:
- Experience in financial oversight, budgeting, and/or charity finance.
- Strong accountancy or numeracy skills and the ability to communicate financial matters clearly.
- A commitment to GADN’s values, including gender equality, anti-racism, and decolonisation.
Experience in the international development or women’s rights sector is desirable, but not essential.
