Fundraising Trustee
Can you help shape CoppaFeel!’s next chapter?
CoppaFeel! has never stood still. From a bold idea around a kitchen table to one of the UK's most recognised health charities, we have continued to challenge convention, reach young people with a life saving message and build a community that believes breast cancer does not need to be diagnosed late.
We are now entering an exciting new chapter. After a period of exceptional growth, fundraising has become increasingly central to what is possible next - creating opportunities to broaden our reach, deepen our impact and invest in the future and so we are looking for a Fundraising Trustee to join our Board.
This is not simply about reviewing fundraising reports or providing technical expertise. It is an opportunity to bring strategic insight, constructive challenge and fresh thinking to help shape how CoppaFeel! builds sustainable income and achieves its ambitions over the next decade.
What we're looking for
We're particularly interested in people with experience of:
● Leading or significantly growing philanthropy, major giving or other high value fundraising
● Developing strategic corporate partnerships and long term supporter relationships
● Unlocking commercial or transformational income opportunities
● Building sustainable, diversified fundraising portfolios
● Leading fundraising through periods of organisational growth and change
● Advising Boards or Executive Teams on fundraising strategy, investment and risk
You don't need to have worked exclusively in philanthropy or corporate partnerships. What matters is evidence of strategic relationship building, senior influencing, commercial judgement and the ability to balance ambition with sustainable growth.
You'll be someone who:
● Thinks strategically rather than operationally
● Is comfortable interrogating data, evidence and return on investment
● Spots opportunities others might miss
● Enjoys healthy debate and constructive challenge
● Challenges with respect, humility and good judgement
● Is excited by ambitious organisations and wants to help shape what comes next
Experience working with or reaching young people is a bonus.
What it's like around the Board table
Our Board is lively, collaborative, respectful, energetic, curious and challenging. There is healthy debate, everyone has a voice and Trustees are encouraged to bring their expertise and challenge thinking when something could be better. The Board has a strong and open relationship with the Executive Team. Trustees provide strategic support and constructive challenge, while giving the team the space to lead and deliver.As CoppaFeel! grows, we're determined to protect what makes us special — our personality, authenticity, entrepreneurial spirit and the legacy of our founder Kris.
Time commitment
Trustees meet quarterly, usually for around 2.5 hours, with additional time for preparation and occasional advice or support between meetings.
Trustees are unremunerated, although reasonable travel expenses can be claimed.
The initial term is three years, with the possibility of reappointment.
This is a genuinely pivotal moment for CoppaFeel!. We're looking for someone who wants to do more than sit around a Board table, someone who wants to help shape the next
chapter of one of the UK's most distinctive and innovative health charities.
If you want to be part of what CoppaFeel! is building next, we'd love to hear from you.
Role closes Friday 2nd October at 2pm

Rights & Security International (RSI) is offering this exciting opportunity for new volunteer Trustees to join our Board.
About us
We are a small, expert charity dedicated to promoting the freedoms of expression, belief and identity, while stopping governments from treating people as ‘terrorism’ threats simply because of who they are.
We challenge religious, racial and gender bias in national security programmes, promote justice and transparency, and ensure that the voices of communities facing discrimination are heard.
We were founded by a group of women activists in Northern Ireland in 1990 to seek justice for rights violations committed as part of the conflict in the region, and now work throughout the UK and internationally.
Today, we focus especially on ending Islamophobia and racism in counter-terrorism programmes, stopping governments from treating migrants and asylum-seekers as ‘security’ threats unfairly, and upholding the rights of peaceful protesters.
Globally, we work primarily to support civil society and expose harmful ‘security’ or ‘emergency’ laws in several parts of Latin America and East Africa; our project on environmental human rights defenders also brings together activists from Southeast Asia. We raise the profile of rights violations and help develop new narratives and strategies.
We have a large impact for our size, publishing groundbreaking investigations and carrying out effective advocacy in Westminster, at the UN and elsewhere.
About you
The successful candidates will bring a dedication to upholding human rights and equality, especially in the counter-terrorism and national security contexts. You should have a strong dedication to human rights principles and an understanding that human rights are for everyone.
You should have experience in a field that is relevant to charity work, such as community organising/grassroots activism, law, communications, advocacy, accounting, management or supporting human rights defenders.
We are especially interested in applications from candidates with lived experience of:
· Migration to, or seeking asylum in, the UK; OR
· Promoting people’s fundamental rights in El Salvador, Mexico, Honduras, Ecuador, Colombia, Peru or Chile.
About the Trustee role
As a Trustee, you will have an active role in shaping our organisation and ensuring that we are well run. We welcome enthusiastic, active governance and a curiosity about why and how we do our work. You would have an impact by shaping our strategies, helping us build our networks and (as appropriate) collaborating directly with staff. We work from the grassroots level (advising migrants) to the international one (drawing UN attention to rights violations), so your impact as a Trustee will ultimately make a difference to both individual lives and broader systems.
Trustees are expected to attend remote Board meetings approximately six times per year.
Trustees who live in/near the UK are also expected to attend one annual in-person ‘away day’ in London.
We are looking for Trustees who will enthusiastically promote RSI, including to potential donors.
All Trustee roles are unpaid, although reasonable expenses arising due to the role will be reimbursed.
Application Details: If you are interested in this volunteer role, please send a statement of interest (no more than two pages) and your CV through Charity Job.
RSI strives to be diverse, equitable and inclusive. We treat all staff, trustees and interns like team members and encourage everyone to bring their full selves to our work. We welcome applications from candidates from groups that have historically been underrepresented in the human rights, legal or policy fields, and/or who are from communities that have been directly impacted by the issues we address. All applications are considered on an equal-opportunity basis.
By submitting your application, you consent to our processing and retention of your personal data to the extent, and for the time period, necessary to consider the application. We will keep your application on file for no more than one year.
