We are looking for a Treasurer with an accountancy background and Board level experience to join our Board to support our small but mighty charity to bring the joy of reading to primary school children across the country.

Location: Online
Salary: Voluntary with reasonable expenses reimbursed
Deadline for applications: 31st January 2026

About Us:

The Children’s Bookshow is a national charity that inspires children with a love of books and reading through an annual programme of inspiring theatre and digital performances and engaging creative workshops. We showcase some of the best authors and illustrators of children’s books from around the world, and celebrate children’s literature in translation. 

We are an Arts Council National Portfolio Organisation that has been running successfully for 23 years. Each year, we deliver 15 events in venues ranging from iconic theatres such as The Old Vic in London to community spaces and smaller scale theatres such as the New Wolsey in Ipswich, plus a programme of 60 creative workshops in primary schools. We target areas of high socio-economic deprivation, support environmental sustainability through our programme, and partner with local authorities, libraries and education providers. Every child who attends our theatre performances receives a free copy of the author’s book to take home and keep. This is integral to our offer - putting excellent books directly into the hands of children.

“Having Frank Cottrell-Boyce in for a free workshop really did make such a difference to our school and to our children. Frank was able to inspire every single child to write, no matter their need or ability, and children who would normally be reluctant to share their ideas in front of the class were confident to do so. Every single one of them went home talking non-stop about the amazing author they had met - with many now inspired to become authors. I can't put into words how grateful we are or how much of an impact those couple of hours have had on both the children and staff.” 
Teacher, Winyates Primary, Peterborough 2024

The opportunities:

If you think you have the expertise and passion to support our work and help us to deliver the kind of impact and change experienced by Winyates Primary, then we would love to hear from you!

Thanks to successful fundraising The Children’s Bookshow is financially stable for the next two years. Iterative growth and continued financial sustainability are crucial for us to fulfill our aspirations for the future: 

• Give more primary school children the invaluable experience of a live author event at a local theatre
• Enable children to work creatively with a world class artist in their own classroom 
• Increase book ownership by putting a free book into the hands of every child who attends one of our performances

We are recruiting a Treasurer to join our Board of highly-skilled, committed and friendly Trustees to guide and support us in achieving these aims.

The Role:
Trustees share oversight of The Children’s Bookshow’s artistic programming, operations, fundraising and finances, to ensure good governance in compliance with our governing document and with UK charity and company law.

Time commitment: around 4-6 days per year.

Treasurer:
We are seeking a new Treasurer to ensure high standards of financial governance and decision-making, and to act as a key sounding board for the Co-Directors in the financial planning, management and reporting of our charity. This will include overseeing our annual budget and cashflow and quarterly management accounts, and advising on how best to invest our reserve fund. 

We are looking for a qualified accountant with Board level experience with a UK charity and an interest in our work.

A background in children’s literature, publishing or theatre would be an advantage, but not essential.

The Children’s Bookshow is committed to creating a collaborative Board of Trustees that is inclusive and representative of our society. We actively encourage applicants from diverse backgrounds and from all sections of society to apply. 

Meetings:
There are typically four Board meetings a year lasting around an hour. Three of these meetings take place online and we endeavour to meet in person once a year in central London for a meeting followed by lunch. We welcome Trustees to attend our theatre performances and online events wherever possible to directly experience our work. 

We also have a Finance and Operations Committee that occasionally meets online and reports to the Board, which Trustees are invited to opt into to share their expertise in specific areas such as Finance, Fundraising and Development. 

How to apply

Please email your CV and a covering letter (each a maximum of 2 sides of A4) detailing your relevant expertise and experience for the role of Treasurer, and why you would like to be part of The Children’s Bookshow. We look forward to hearing from you. 

This is a brilliant time to join Caxton Youth as we embark on our strategy refresh, seeking to enhance our voice and impact by building partnerships, expanding our presence in the Westminster community and growing our quality youth services. Help us steer the charity during this crucial time as the new Chair of the Board of Trustees.

Who we are

Established in 1948, Caxton Youth is the only specialist youth club in the City of Westminster dedicated to learning-disabled and autistic young people aged 11–25. We provide a safe, welcoming, and inclusive community where young people can build friendships, explore new interests, and develop the skills needed to lead independent, happy, and healthy lives.

We aim to break down disabling barriers in society by offering youth-led services shaped by the aspirations of our members. Our approach is person-centred, providing a mix of 1:1 support and inclusive group activities to help each individual reach their own goals.

Our core delivery centres on weekly youth club sessions held every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday at our Westminster base. These sessions offer a vibrant mix of sports, cooking, arts and crafts and music, providing a safe space for young people to socialise and explore new interests. To ensure these opportunities are accessible to all, we provide dedicated community transport via a wheelchair-accessible minibus for our activities.

Beyond the club, we run dedicated programmes designed to foster independence and emotional well-being. These range from mastering essential life skills, such as preparing hot drinks and navigating public transport independently, to improving mental health by building self-esteem and social connections through initiatives like our “Mates Dates” outings. For our older members aged 16–25, we offer targeted employment support, including CV writing, interview preparation and assistance in securing volunteering or training opportunities.

Our impact extends into the school holidays with a comprehensive provision of day trips and overnight residentials at outdoor activity centres, allowing members to experience nature and adventure in an accessible environment. These services not only empower the young people but also provide vital respite and a local support network for parents and guardians, knowing their children are in a safe and supportive environment.

Through the power of youth work, we co-create safe, inclusive spaces where learning disabled and autistic young people can take part in accessible activities driven by their needs, wants and interests.

This is an opportunity to chair a charity transforming lives by helping more people experience the positive impact of learning. You can help shape the future of this remarkable charity and lead the Board of Shannon Trust to broaden, deepen and mature what we deliver.

Who we are

Picture this: a person in prison who struggles with literacy and numeracy reads their first sentence, they write their first letter home to their children or completes their first numeracy task. They begin to imagine a future beyond the prison walls.

This is what happens when someone learns with Shannon Trust, and it happens thousands of times each year across prisons in England, Wales and Northern Ireland. Currently, 65% of people in prison can’t read, or struggle to. Even more struggle with numeracy.

These are not just statistics; they represent people who have been locked out of opportunity, who struggle with daily tasks, such as helping their children with homework or filling out a job application. At Shannon Trust, we believe everyone deserves the chance to learn, and that literacy and numeracy skills help build the foundations upon which people can rebuild their lives.

Where we are now

Shannon Trust has experienced remarkable growth over recent years. We have gone from a team of twelve people to one hundred staff today, supported by a volunteer base that brings us close to 250 people working to change lives through learning. The core of what we do is one-to-one peer mentoring in prisons. In 2025 alone, more than 11,000 learners used our reading and numeracy programmes, with 2,000 new volunteer peer-mentors trained to support them. We work in around one hundred prisons across England, Wales and Northern Ireland, delivering our Turning Pages reading programme and Count Me In numeracy programme. We are increasing our reach into the community, too. This growth is the result of sustained focus, strong relationships with funders who believe in our work, and the proven impact of our peer-led learning model.

What we are looking for

We are looking for a Chair who is strongly motivated by our cause, with a genuine empathy for the people we serve and a commitment to the person-centred language and inclusive thinking which are woven into everything we do. You will bring an engaged and engaging leadership style, have resilience and a personal gravitas.

You will be someone who is comfortable with complexity as we shape our organisation for the next chapter of our development. You will understand the importance of process, culture, and effective operations as the means of delivering a successful strategy and sustaining an organisation.

You will be someone who can help us be better advocates whether that is supporting our Chief Executive to build relationships with policymakers, helping us think through how we position ourselves in the education and criminal justice landscape, or using your own networks to create opportunities for Shannon Trust to influence and inform. We need a Chair who sees advocacy as part of the role.

Most importantly, our new Chair must be a strong partner for our CEO, a mentor, challenger and support.

About Us

Tell My Truth and Shame the Devil CIC is a grassroots movement committed to confronting and eradicating Child Sexual Abuse (CSA) across the UK. We give survivors, families, and allies the power to speak out, heal and educate communities through storytelling, outreach, and collective action. We work across all communities - Black, white, Asian, Caribbean, African and beyond, ensuring no survivor feels alone or silenced. Our CIC operates through a community-driven, volunteer-led structure, built by people who believe in truth, justice, and love as law.

This Role Is Not Symbolic. It Is Structural.

Safeguarding is not a policy document; It is not a checkbox; It is not a compliance exercise. In this CIC, safeguarding is the infrastructure that allows the work to exist at all.

We work with:

• Survivors of childhood sexual abuse (CSA)

• Vulnerable adults

• Young people

• Ex-offenders

• Volunteers with lived trauma

• Communities historically failed by institutions

If safeguarding fails, everything fails. This role exists to make sure that never happens.

Purpose of the Safeguarding Officer Role

The Safeguarding Officer is responsible for designing, implementing, and protecting the safeguarding framework that allows the CIC to operate safely, ethically, and lawfully at scale.

This role ensures:

• Survivors are protected, not re-exposed

• Volunteers are supported, not exploited

• Risks are identified early, not ignored

• Safeguarding is embedded into every system, not bolted on

About the role:

To design and uphold safeguarding systems that protect survivors, volunteers and the organisation, ensuring safety, ethics and legal compliance are built into every practice as the CIC grows. Safeguarding is the infrastructure that allows the work to "SAFELY" exist at all.

    • Training and supervision

• Act as the safeguarding lead for concerns, disclosures, and incidents, ensuring:

  • Accurate recording
• Correct escalation to statutory agencies where required

• Build systems that prevent re-exposure, re-traumatisation, or exploitation of survivors.

• Ensure volunteers are supported, supervised and not placed in unsafe or inappropriate roles.

• Advise leadership on safeguarding risks, capacity limits and ethical boundaries.

• Monitor safeguarding practice across teams and intervene early where drift appears.

• Work closely with Digital, Membership, Fundraising, and Social teams to manage risk in:

  • Storytelling
  • Online engagement
  • Data use

• Maintain professional distance and emotional steadiness when handling complex situations.

You must:

• Be able to commit 80% dedication during the build phase

• Be comfortable working unpaid while the CIC is being built

• Be emotionally grounded and professionally boundaries

• Understand trauma without centring yourself

You should have experience in some of the following:

• Safeguarding (statutory, charity, education, health, or grassroots)

• Working with vulnerable adults and/or children

• Trauma-informed practice

This role is not for you if:

• You want safeguarding to be “light touch”

• You avoid difficult conversations

• You seek authority without responsibility

• You are uncomfortable challenging leadership when needed

• 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

• The opportunity to shape a future paid safeguarding role

• Deep purpose-driven work that actually protects people

Shortlisted applicants will be invited to:

• A values-led conversation

• A practical discussion about event planning, coordination, and execution

If you believe that well-organised, purposeful events can change communities, and that experiences inspire action, this role is for you.

It is also an act of discipline.

If you know that:

• Survivors deserve better systems

Who we are

The British Association of Urological Surgeons (BAUS) is the professional membership organisation for urologists and urological teams in the UK. We are a registered charity representing over 2,500 members, including consultants, trainees and allied health professionals, all committed to improving the care and outcomes of people with urological conditions.

BAUS delivers education and professional development through national conferences, specialist training and clinical audit, playing a key role in setting professional standards and sharing best practice across the UK and internationally.

With our headquarters at the Royal College of Surgeons of England, we are an established and respected voice within the medical community — and our motto, united strength is stronger, reflects the power of collaboration across our membership and partners.

 About the roles

The board of trustees provides collective leadership, oversight and strategic guidance to ensure BAUS fulfils its charitable objectives and continues to thrive for the benefit of patients and professionals alike.

Trustees work closely with our senior team and council to oversee strategy, risk and resources, ensuring that our work reflects the evolving needs of the urological community and wider healthcare landscape.

We now seek to appoint two new lay trustees as we look to further develop and grow our impact. These key roles represent an exciting opportunity to contribute to the continued development of an organisation at the heart of advancing urological care and professional excellence.

Who we are looking for

We are particularly interested in hearing from candidates who bring skills and perspectives that complement those of our existing Board and membership. In particular, we would welcome:

• Public affairs and policy experience, ideally with an understanding of health or professional regulation, to help strengthen BAUS’s engagement with government and external stakeholders.
• Strategic communications or advocacy expertise, with the ability to help shape our voice and influence policy and patient engagement.
• Income generation expertise, ideally from the pharmaceutical industry.
• Patient Engagement, ideally with experience of patient and public engagement, advocating for those with lived experience
• Governance/legal experience, ideally with medical association experience

You do not need prior board experience to apply. We welcome expressions of interest from those new to trusteeship who share our values, are committed to public benefit and are keen to learn and contribute.

BAUS is deeply committed to inclusion and widening participation across our membership, leadership and governance. We particularly encourage applications from women, people from underrepresented backgrounds and those with lived experience of the issues we address.

Time commitment

The equivalent of approximately 1 – 2 days per month. The board meets five to six times a year, usually in London or virtually. Trustees are expected to attend our annual scientific meeting (3 days each June). Each trustee will sit on a clinical sub-committee. They are encouraged to engage in BAUS events and working groups that align with their interests and expertise.
