Evaluation volunteer roles
Role description
The Board of Trustees (“the Board”) is the ultimate governing body of the charity. Working together as members of the Board, Trustees have control of NYO’s property and funds and are responsible for the determination of major strategic, financial and artistic policies; approval of the annual business plan and budget; appointment of the Chief Executive; approval of trustee appointments; and the framework of risk and internal control.
Key responsibilities
Governance & compliance
- Ensure NYO pursues its charitable purposes for public benefit and complies with its governing documents, charity law, company law, and relevant regulations.
- Manage resources responsibly: protect assets, approve budgets and annual accounts, and oversee financial controls and reserves.
- Ensure accountability and transparency, including fair, clear reporting in the Trustees’ Annual Report and financial statements.
- Uphold the Charity Governance Code’s recommended practices for an effective board team and culture.
Strategy, performance & risk
- Contribute to NYO’s strategy and monitor delivery against objectives; scrutinise performance information and challenge constructively.
- Identify and manage principal risks; satisfy yourself that systems exist to mitigate them.
Conduct & conflicts
- Adhere to board ways of working and the Trustee Code of Conduct. Participate in annual board evaluations and training.
- Handle information in accordance with NYO’s data protection and confidentiality policies.
- Declare and manage conflicts of interest and related‑party matters, completing annual declarations and updating the register as needed.
Safeguarding, EDI and culture
- Promote a safeguarding culture; complete annual training; and monitor safeguarding information at board level.
- Champion equality, diversity and inclusion, including accessible meetings and recruitment practices consistent with the Charity Governance Code.
Engagement & fundraising
- Play an active role in developing NYO’s networks. Build and maintain relationships with key stakeholders, including donors, sponsors, and partners.
- Support fundraising initiatives and help open doors through your networks.

- Provide insight on the realities young people face today, including barriers to participation and progression, and what helps teenagers thrive in arts and education settings.
- Engage with and help NYO develop its approach to youth voice, across a portfolio including opportunities for agency, ambassadorship, meaningful input into decisions, and building confidence through leadership opportunities.
- Support board-level safeguarding oversight, with particular awareness of safeguarding responsibilities within large-scale youth projects and residential environments.
- Contribute to strategic thinking about inclusion, participation and progression, recognising that when a teenager finds something they love they need opportunities to progress and to explore whether it could be part of their future.
Person Specification
All trustees are expected to demonstrate the following:
- Commitment to NYO’s mission and values, including youth voice.
- Strategic vision and the ability to scrutinise performance information and financial reports.
- Willingness to constructively challenge and devote the necessary time and effort.
- Understanding and acceptance of the legal duties, responsibilities and liabilities of trusteeship.

- Inclusive behaviours and a commitment to Equity, Diversity and Inclusion.
- Ability to work effectively as a member of a team.
- Commitment to the Nolan principles of public life: selflessness, integrity, objectivity, accountability, openness, honesty and leadership.
Time commitment
- Attend quarterly Board meetings and ad hoc/standing committee meetings as required
- Attend a board away day every 1-2 years
- Visit at least one NYO residency or project a year and attend key donor events (3-4 evenings per year)
- Participate in induction sessions and attend annual safeguarding training.
Quarterly board meetings usually take place on weekday afternoons (forthcoming: 14 May, 8 July, 22 October 2026 at 3.00 – 5.30pm)
Term of office

Our new Trustees may come from many walks of life and we do not require prior board-level experience. At this time, we are particularly keen to hear from candidates who can help to build the charity’s infrastructure with: finance or accountancy, law, human resources and people management, income generation, commercial fundraising, marketing and communications, as well as those with experience in the education sector or working with young people.
Successful candidates will be able to demonstrate some of the following qualities:
- Sound judgement and strategic thinking ability balanced by an openness to listening to others and to new ideas
- A clear commitment to equality, diversity and inclusion in the organisation
- Understanding or experience of the arts and/or education and a belief in the transformative power of poetry and performance
- An enthusiasm for arts charity work and the confidence and willingness to advocate our mission.
All Trustees will be offered an induction. The role offers the opportunity to learn about governance and what it takes to run an arts organisation and achieve its objectives. Alongside experienced individuals, we also want to recruit a young trustee who would be willing to take up a governance role for the first time, someone who is willing to be mentored, so that we can offer tailored support and training as required.
All Trustees will have the opportunity to attend Young Identity writing workshops, training, and events to experience Young Identity’s unique delivery of poetry and performance.
Our current board is a diverse mix of trustees with backgrounds in: economics, law, psychology, education, counselling, young people’s arts production, community engagement and creative business development. The current board brings a wealth of knowledge, both specialist and general, as well as invaluable perspectives and lived experience ranging from the local, national and international. However, we also need to actively manage changes to the board as the terms of current trustees come to an end. We strive to do this in a systematic and organised way to ensure both continuity, stability as well as the development and progression of Young Identity.

Learning and curriculum designers wanted to help East London Waterworks Park deliver its environmental learning goals.
East London Waterworks Park is a volunteer-led charity that has won a 2024 New London Architecture award and raised £2m towards buying land from the Department for Education to transform the 14-acre Thames Water Depot on Lea Bridge Road on the border of Waltham Forest and Hackney, into a new biodiverse park with natural swimming ponds, forest schools and community spaces.
We are looking for volunteers to develop learning content and resources, such as lesson plans and educational materials, to support our environmental learning goals. This role will focus on creating school-friendly resources for our website and collaborating with educators to enhance our offerings.
The role would include:
- Developing online learning resources for our website (on-going project)
- Designing or tailoring existing lesson plans and activities for schools
- Supporting the creation of ELWP’s Under 18s volunteering policy
- Supporting outreach efforts to promote ELWP’s existing learning programmes
Schools, universities and youth groups we've collaborated with include:
- Waltham Forest College
- Henry Maynard Primary School, Walthamstow
- Buxton School, Leytonstone
- Kingsmead Primary School, Hackney
- Daubeney Primary School, Hackney
- UCL
- Royal College of Art

We hope that people bring radical imagination, peace with nature, and courageous inclusiveness to the role.

This will in turn provide a sense of stewardship over the land once the park is created and student's ideas have been built into the park. Creating learning projects with educational institutions will also help our charity with the strategy to buy the land through showing the value of our environmental education programme before we create the park.
