Inclusive Boards is delighted to support Southwark Cathedral to appoint two Lay Member of Chapter and Charity Trustees

For over 1400 years Southwark Cathedral has stood as a place of Christian worship and service. Today it occupies a distinctive place on London’s South Bank – surrounded by some of the city’s most iconic cultural and commercial institutions, including the Tate Modern, Shakespeare’s Globe and Borough Market.

As the mother church of the Diocese of Southwark, the Cathedral is both a spiritual home and civic beacon for communities and parishes in south London, Kent and Surrey. It is a place of worship and welcome, where faith meets daily life, hosting thousands of visitors (not least because of its proximity to Borough Market), community initiatives and cultural partnerships each year.

Guided by our mission ‘to make space for love, with heart mind and soul’, we seek to reflect God’s love in a way that reaches beyond the Cathedral’s walls: building relationships, inspiring creativity, encouraging learning, championing social justice and inclusivity and engaging with the life of our multi-ethnic diverse city.

About the Cathedral Chapter

The Cathedral Chapter (the governing body) is now seeking to appoint two new Lay Members, who can bring fresh perspectives, professional insight and the ability to help strengthen the strategy and management of our property portfolio, including the Cathedral building and precinct.

As a lay Member of Chapter, you will serve as both trustee and adviser supporting the Cathedral’s mission through effective governance, scrutiny of decisions, financial oversight, and the development of future strategy and management for our property portfolio, including the Cathedral and precinct.

Your insight and expertise will help ensure Southwark Cathedral remains not only a place of worship but also a centre of community life, rooted in faith championing diversity and inclusion.

Lay Member of Chapter and Charity Trustee – Property

Southwark Cathedral is seeking a new Lay Member of Chapter and Charity Trustee with senior-level experience in property strategy, investment and management.

We are seeking a candidate who combines professional insight, good judgement and a genuine enthusiasm for the Cathedral’s mission. You will bring an external perspective that helps Chapter think about options for investing in and divesting of property assets, as well as up to date knowledge of good practice in property management.  As a trusted adviser, you will help shape the Cathedral’s strategy for growth, sustainability and public engagement and the role of our property portfolio and Cathedral building in underpinning that strategy.

You will play an active role in helping Chapter develop an appropriate strategy to direct future investment in our properties and their ongoing maintenance.  This will include giving consideration, inter alia, to financial constraints, risks and Chapter’s role as a landlord and the custodian of a grade 1 listed building. 

Lay Member of Chapter and Charity Trustee – Fundraising

Southwark Cathedral is seeking a new Lay Member of Chapter and Charity Trustee with experience in fundraising, partnership development or income generation.

We are seeking a candidate who combines professional insight, good judgement and a genuine enthusiasm for the Cathedral’s mission.  You will bring an external perspective that helps the Chapter think expansively about its role in the wider world – strengthening connections with external stakeholders.  As a trusted adviser and advocate, you will help shape the Cathedral’s strategy for growth, sustainability, and public engagement, while contributing to its life as a place of Christian worship and service.

You will play an active role in helping Chapter be outward facing, exploring opportunities for income generation, philanthropy and collaboration. This will include guiding the Cathedral’s fundraising strategy, helping identify and engage potential supporters, and acting as a bridge to networks across sectors such as business, other charities, culture, education and social impact.

About The Pinnacle Centre

The Pinnacle Centre is a third space in Birmingham helping young adults grow holistically. We work across three domains: personal development, sports and wellbeing, and community and belonging.

Vision 2030 is where that work is heading. We're building a multi-purpose centre in Birmingham — sports facilities, co-working space, an auditorium and a café — designed as a home for young adults to train, work, learn and gather.

Role Summary

You own how money comes into Pinnacle. Grants, corporate sponsorship, community giving and donor relationships all sit with you, and your job is to make them add up to an income that is diversified enough to survive one of them failing — while laying the groundwork for the campaign that funds Vision 2030. Finance manages what we spend; you determine what there is to spend.

Key tasks

1.  Strategy & pipeline

○ Own the annual fundraising plan with clear targets by income stream, agreed with the CFO.

○ Maintain a live pipeline of funders, sponsors and donors with deadlines, values and likelihood.

○ Balance the portfolio so that no single funder or channel is a point of failure.

○ Sequence effort towards the Vision 2030 capital requirement rather than only this year's costs.

2.  Community & digital giving

○ Design and run giving campaigns, including seasonal appeals and sponsored challenges.

○ Own our giving platforms, donation pages and Gift Aid processing.

○ Build a regular giving programme and reduce lapse rates through timely, human communication.

○ Set the ask and the case; work with Marketing, who own the channels and audience.

3.  Donor care, compliance & reporting

○ Ensure every donation is acknowledged promptly and that donors hear what their money changed.

○ Maintain an accurate donor record with consent and preferences, compliant with GDPR.

○ Ensure all fundraising meets Fundraising Regulator standards.

○ Report income against target to the CFO monthly, with an honest read on the pipeline.

What we're looking for

● A track record of raising money —community fundraising or High net worth.

● Excellent written English; you can make a case that persuades a stranger to fund it.

● Comfortable with targets, pipelines and being measured against them.

● You understand the difference between an ask and a relationship, and know when each is appropriate.

● Organised enough to run several income streams without dropping the reporting on any of them.

● Experience of a capital appeal or major campaign (desirable).

What we have to offer

● Real ownership of a function, not a task list — you will shape how it works, not just execute someone else's plan.

● A seat in a team building towards a 2030 horizon, with a clear line of sight to the leadership team.

● Access to our network of founders, professionals, entrepreneurs and investors through Pinnacle's events programme.

● Training, mentoring and the opportunity to build and lead a team of your own as the organisation grows.

● The reward of building something in your city that will outlast all of us.

Please note: this is currently a volunteer position. Reasonable expenses for travel, equipment and refreshments are reimbursed in line with our Expenses Policy. As Pinnacle grows and funding allows, we expect several senior roles to move to paid positions, and volunteers already in post will be considered first.

Join the Board of Bristol Historic Buildings Trust - help fund the restoration of a Bristol landmark

Bristol Historic Buildings Trust (BHBT) is seeking a new Trustee with fundraising experience to help us bring Ashton Court Mansion back to life.

Ashton Court Mansion is a Grade I listed manor house with origins in the 14th century, set within an 850-acre estate on the edge of Bristol. Around three quarters of the building remains derelict. We are working with Bristol City Council to take a 125-year lease and regenerate the Mansion as a living civic place where heritage, creativity and public life meet.

We are already in the building under a tenancy at will, have refurbished the first rooms and begun taking event bookings.

Beyond that sits the long-term restoration itself - a phased, grant-led programme of significant scale, requiring a sustained major grants pipeline and a matching campaign alongside it.

Our vision is a building that works as a place of celebration, incubation and education, programmed around five areas: food, culture and arts, skills, nature and outdoors, and heritage.

We need a trustee with significant fundraising experience, who can help achieve our vision for ACM and who can help the Board build the capability to do it repeatedly.

What we are looking for (some, not all, of the following)

•Experience of major capital fundraising, ideally in heritage, culture or the built environment

•A track record with major grant funders - National Lottery Heritage Fund, Arts Council England, Historic England, trusts and foundations

•Major gifts and high-net-worth donor cultivation

•Corporate partnerships and business sponsorship

•Individual giving, regular giving and membership schemes

•Experience shaping a compelling case for support and holding an organisation to a fundraising strategy and pipeline

What the role involves

•Bringing fundraising challenge and expertise to Board discussions, and helping set realistic targets

•Supporting the development of our grant pipeline, major donor strategy and supporter programmes

•Opening doors where you can, and representing the Trust to funders and supporters

•4 quarterly board meetings per year (March, June, September, December), approx. 2 hours each

•An annual strategy day

•Additional involvement as your skills allow - fundraising, stakeholder meetings, representing the charity at events

•Terms of up to 3 years (renewable)

•The role is unremunerated; reasonable expenses are reimbursed

About us

We are committed to a Board that reflects the community we serve and the wider Bristol community, and we welcome applicants from all backgrounds.

Our mission: to restore and operate Ashton Court Mansion through a mixed-use model combining conservation, community programming and commercial activity, sustained by a diversified income base of earned income, grants, donations and community investment.

How to apply

If this sounds like you, we would love to hear from you. Informal conversations welcome before applying.

Send a brief statement of suitability (up to 250 words) and your CV by 20th September 2026

Fundraising Volunteer - RSPCA North West London & South Hertfordshire Branch

Could you use your fundraising skills to help animals?

Every year, our Branch rescues, cares for and rehomes hundreds of unwanted, stray and abandoned animals. We also help local pet owners who are struggling to afford essential veterinary treatment, helping animals get the care they need and, wherever possible, stay with the people who love them.

As a local RSPCA branch, we raise the money we need ourselves. Donations, grants, gifts in wills and support from our local community make it possible for us to rescue animals, provide veterinary treatment, care for them while they are with us and find them loving new homes. We're looking for a Fundraising Volunteer to help us find new sources of funding and develop ideas that will bring more support to our work.

This could be a great opportunity if you have fundraising experience and would like to use your skills for something that has a direct local impact. You don't need to be an animal welfare expert. We can tell you all about our work and the difference your fundraising could make. What matters most is that you care about animals, have good ideas and enjoy finding ways to bring people and organisations together to support a cause.

What will you be doing?

There are lots of ways you could get involved, depending on your experience and interests.

You might:

• Research charitable trusts, foundations and other grant-making organisations that could support our work.

• Identify new local and national funding opportunities.

• Help us prepare information and applications for grants and funding bids.

• Research potential corporate, community or other fundraising opportunities.

• Help develop appeals to raise money for specific projects and urgent needs.

• Help us tell the story of what we do and why our work needs support.

• Bring your own fundraising ideas and help turn them into reality.

You don't need to be an expert in all of these areas. We're happy to discuss what you're good at, what interests you and how you'd like to contribute.

Who we're looking for

This role could be a good fit if you have:

• Some previous fundraising experience, whether paid or voluntary.

• An interest in animal welfare and the work we do locally.

• Good written communication skills.

• The ability to research information and identify relevant opportunities.

• Creativity and an ability to think of new ways to generate support.

• The confidence to work independently while keeping in touch with the team.

We're particularly interested in hearing from people who enjoy finding opportunities, making connections and turning good ideas into action.

Flexible volunteering

We understand that volunteers have busy lives, so we're happy to be flexible. Much of this role can be carried out from home, and you can agree your time commitment with us based on your availability and what you would like to get involved in. You're also very welcome to spend time at our Eastcote office if you'd enjoy working alongside our team.

You'll be supported

Although you'll be using your own skills and experience, you won't be left to work things out on your own.

We'll introduce you to our Branch, our work and our priorities and provide the information, guidance and policies you need to carry out your role confidently. You'll have a named contact within the Branch and will be part of our wider team of staff and volunteers.

The wellbeing of our people is important to us. We're committed to safeguarding children, adults at risk and everyone we come into contact with through our work.

What difference could you make?

Your fundraising could help us:

• Rescue an animal who has nowhere else to go.

• Pay for essential veterinary treatment.

• Provide food, medication and everyday care.

• Improve accommodation and equipment for animals in our care.

• Support an owner who is struggling to afford veterinary treatment for their pet.

• Help more animals find loving new homes.

• Develop our services and make sure our Branch is here for animals and their owners in the future.

Your skills could directly translate into better lives for animals in our community.

You'll also have the opportunity to:

• Use your fundraising experience for a cause you care about.

• Gain or build on your charity fundraising experience.

• Develop your research, bid writing and communication skills.

• Add meaningful voluntary experience to your CV.

• Meet other people who care about animal welfare.

• Become part of a friendly and committed local team.
