The Organisation
Family Fund is the UK’s largest charity supporting low-income families raising disabled or seriously ill children and young people.
We help thousands of families every year with essential grants, services and practical support. But we do much more than that. We champion families’ voices, challenge inequality and help shape the conversation on disability, childhood illness and disadvantage.
The Roles
The need for our support has never been greater. Maintaining and growing that support requires us to find ever more creative and innovative ways to increase funding, communicate our work, and strengthen our brand profile so that we can continue to reach the families who need us most. Alongside this, we must ensure we are working efficiently so that every £1 of funding goes further for the benefit of those we support.
Trustees play an active role in governing the charity and are responsible for setting the vision and strategic priorities, while ensuring we comply with all legal, charitable, and financial requirements. We are now seeking two Trustees to join our Board and help shape the next stage of our development and impact.
Trustee – Income Growth
We are seeking a Trustee with the knowledge and experience to help us grow and diversify our income streams across both the Charity and Family Fund Business Services, working seamlessly and efficiently as one Group. We want to maximise the income streams, partnerships, and relationships we already have, while also exploring and moving at pace into new areas that align with our strategy and goals. This will require courage, resolve, and teamwork, and we are seeking a Trustee who can advise and work with us on this exciting journey.
Trustee – Fundraising & Philanthropy
We hope to find a Trustee with experience in major fundraising to advise us on strategies to strengthen and broaden our fundraised income. We want to enhance and grow our core fundraising functions, focusing on individual giving, legacies, and community engagement, to sustain current delivery and unlock new income streams that enable the development of future services and support. We will have clear plans for major donors and high-net-worth individuals, trusts and foundations, and corporate partnerships to build unrestricted and core funding.
For both roles, we are seeking Trustees who can bring thought leadership, constructive challenge, and fresh ideas as we strengthen and diversify our income base by growing existing and developing new income sources across fundraising, philanthropy, government, and commercial ventures.
This is a fantastic opportunity to develop skills and experience while giving back to a nationwide charity that makes a real and practical difference to the lives of families every day.
The Person
We are looking for Trustees who can demonstrate:
We welcome candidates from all backgrounds who have the skills and experience required to be a Trustee. We would particularly encourage applications from people with disabilities or long-term conditions, and from parents or carers of children and young adults with disabilities or serious illnesses, to help bring valuable lived experience and fresh perspectives to our Board.

Join the MINDSET Charity Steering Group
Help shape a new movement for men’s wellbeing and personal growth
MINDSET is a new charity with a bold mission: to equip men with the tools, skills, and approaches they need to live happier, healthier, more resilient lives — in a non‑clinical, non‑therapeutic, practical way.
We’re building something meaningful from the ground up, and we’re looking for a small group of committed volunteers to help shape our foundation.
What is the Steering Group?
The Steering Group is a temporary leadership team (6–12 months) that will guide the early development of MINDSET before we formally register as a charity and appoint Trustees.
You’ll help shape:
our mission and values
our first programmes and workshops
our safeguarding and boundaries
our culture and tone
our community outreach
our long‑term structure and governance
This is your chance to influence a charity at the very beginning.
Who we’re looking for
You don’t need to be a mental health professional. You do need to care about men’s wellbeing and personal growth.
We welcome people with experience or interest in:
facilitation or group leadership
safeguarding or risk awareness
wellbeing, coaching, or personal development
community work or lived experience
operations, finance, or admin
marketing, branding, or communications
Most importantly, you should be:
open‑minded
collaborative
reliable
passionate about prevention and growth
comfortable with reflective, skills‑based approaches
Time commitment
Monthly meetings (online)
Occasional small tasks between meetings
A 6–12 month commitment while we build our foundation
Why join us?
This is a rare opportunity to:
shape a charity before it launches
influence how men’s wellbeing is approached
be part of something meaningful and preventative
help create programmes that genuinely change lives
grow personally while helping others grow
You’ll be part of a supportive, purpose‑driven team building something that matters.
Interested?
