4. Create blogs, infographics and other content for our wordpress website, supporter newsletters and annual report

This Role Is Not Symbolic. It Is Structural.

We work with:

• Survivors of childhood sexual abuse (CSA)
• Vulnerable adults

If safeguarding fails, everything fails.

This role ensures:

• Survivors are protected, not re-exposed
• Volunteers are supported, not exploited

• Safeguarding is embedded into every system, not bolted on

This role is not for you if:

• You are looking for a title rather than accountability

What You Gain:

• A founding leadership role in a CIC tackling real harm
• The chance to build safeguarding the right way
• Influence over how protection, care, and accountability coexist

• Deep purpose-driven work that actually protects people

It is also an act of discipline.

If you know that:

• Survivors deserve better systems
• Vulnerable people deserve real protection
• Community work must be safe to be sustainable

Our Vision

The Lysene Cultural Foundation will open the doors of Lys to the world, not as a political entity, but as a cultural vision rooted in harmony, ornament, and human creativity. Through exhibitions, research, educational programmes, and artistic support, we aim to create a living legacy of art, architecture, and craftsmanship.

If you share our belief in the enduring power of beauty and wish to play a defining role in shaping a new charitable foundation, we would be honoured to speak with you.
