Join the Board of Bristol Historic Buildings Trust — help restore a landmark for the community
Bristol Historic Buildings Trust (BHBT) is seeking passionate new Trustees to help us bring Ashton Court Mansion back to life.
Ashton Court Mansion is a Grade I listed manor house with origins dating to the 14th century, set within an 850-acre estate on the edge of Bristol. After decades of partial dereliction, we are working to take a 125-year lease from Bristol City Council and regenerate this extraordinary building for generations to come — as a living civic place where heritage, creativity and public life meet.
We are transitioning to a Charitable Community Benefit Society and preparing to launch a Community Share Offer in July 2026. This is an exciting moment to join the Board and play a shaping role in the project's next chapter.
We are particularly looking for trustees with skills and experience in:
• Charity finances and governance
• Public engagement and fundraising
• Law
• Commercial and business development
• Community projects — especially in Culture, Food, Skills, Sustainability and Heritage
We are also committed to a board that reflects the community we serve, and actively welcome applications from younger people seeking their first trustee experience.
What's involved:
• 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
Our mission: to restore and operate Ashton Court Mansion through a mixed-use model combining conservation, community programming and commercial activity — ensuring long-term financial and public sustainability.

CHIEF OPERATING OFFICER (VOLUNTEER ROLE)
SUNSHINE Charity – Because No One Should Live in Lockdown Forever
Do you remember lockdown?
Now imagine living like that every single day — not because of a global crisis, but because loneliness has quietly become someone’s reality.
At SUNSHINE, we refuse to let that be anyone’s everyday life. Not in London. Not in our communities. Not while we’re here.
We’re here to bring back joy, connection and human warmth — and we need a steady, strategic, compassionate leader to help us build the charity that will make that possible.
Who We Are
SUNSHINE is a brand‑new, grassroots, 100% volunteer‑powered charity on a mission to brighten the lives of people experiencing loneliness and social isolation. We’re small, passionate, and building something hopeful from the ground up. We’re awaiting our charity number — but our purpose is already alive and growing.
Now we need someone who can help us turn that purpose into a strong, sustainable, well‑run organisation.
Your Role: Chief Operating Officer (COO)
This is not just a role — it’s a partnership.
As our COO, you will be the No. 2 in the charity, working closely with our Founder & CEO to shape, manage and grow SUNSHINE during its most exciting and fragile early stages.
You will help transform a hopeful idea into a fully functioning, impactful charity.
You will:
Support the CEO in the day‑to‑day running and strategic development of the charity
Oversee operations, ensuring everything runs smoothly, safely and with heart
Help build our internal structures, systems and processes from scratch
Support the Heads of Departments (Volunteering, Services, Marketing, etc.) to deliver their work effectively
Ensure good governance, compliance and best practice as we grow
Champion a positive, caring, sunshine‑filled organisational culture
Be a key decision‑maker, helping guide the charity through its early growth
Bring stability, clarity and leadership to a fast‑moving, hopeful start‑up environment
Your leadership will help us become a charity that people trust, love and feel safe turning to.
Who You Are
What matters most is your heart, your integrity, your steadiness, and your belief that loneliness should never be a life sentence.
Why Join Us Now?
Because this is the moment everything begins.
You won’t just be joining a charity — you’ll be helping to build it. Your leadership will shape our foundations. Your decisions will shape our future. Your presence will help us bring sunshine into lives that have been dark for far too long.
If you want to be part of something hopeful, human and life‑changing, this is your moment.
How to Apply
Send us your CV and a short statement about why this role speaks to you.
We welcome people from all backgrounds, experiences and walks of life.
Let’s build a charity full of sunshine — together.
