Ready to use your skills to support young people seeking safety?
Join Young Roots as a Trustee and help young refugees rebuild their lives.
Young Roots is a London-based charity supporting young people aged 14–25 who are seeking safety in the UK, many of whom are here alone. Our youth clubs are places of welcome for young people who are isolated, lonely and without family.Our caseworkers make sure young people have everything they need to thrive - somewhere safe to live, a college place, a doctor or a lawyer. And our campaigners are amplifying young people's voices, calling for a fairer, kinder asylum system.
We are now looking for passionate and committed people to join our Board of Trustees. We are particularly interested in hearing from individuals with experience in:
• Finance (Treasurer)
• Diversity, Equity, Inclusion
• Fundraising
This is a chance to bring your expertise to an ambitious organisation delivering life-changing support and campaigning for a more compassionate asylum system. You'll help guide our strategy, strengthen our impact and ensure we are fit for the future.
You don't need previous trustee experience — we'll provide training, support and development. What matters most is your enthusiasm for our mission and your commitment to making a difference.
We strongly encourage applications from people from all backgrounds, particularly those with lived experience of the asylum system and people from communities currently underrepresented in leadership roles.
Commitment: Around 2–4 hours per week, with board meetings every two months (a mix of remote and central London meetings).
Application deadline: 14 June
Join us and help young people seeking safety rebuild thier lives.
