About the job
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.
If this sounds like you, we'd love to hear from you. Informal conversations welcome before applying.
The client requests no contact from agencies or media sales.
Trustees - Voluntary Role
Bring your fundraising skills and transport knowledge to equip us for the future
Campaign for Better Transport is the national organisation advocating for better, greener, fairer transport options for everyone. This includes access to walking, cycling, public transport and shared mobility. Sustainable transport provides access to jobs, education, vital public services, shops, leisure and friends and family, while limiting negative impacts on air quality and the environment.
As a trustee, you’ll have an essential role in contributing towards the future direction of Campaign for Better Transport and making a real difference to our long-term resilience and our subsequent ability to create better public transport.
The last few years have seen increasing difficulty for charities and not-for-profits in the transport sector in raising funds, particularly from Charitable Foundations and Trusts and although good accessible transport is vital to the everyday lives of most people, it is also not an area which resonates for individual fundraising.
For this reason, we’re looking for trustees with voluntary sector fundraising experience to bring new ideas on generating longer term and more diverse funding streams and/or experience of working in small businesses who know how to deliver maximum impact from limited resources. Ideally you will be passionate about transport and have a strong network of industry related contacts.
Our board has a good working relationship with our small but dedicated team of staff, and prides itself on being very friendly and relaxed.
Commitment:

Every day, LGBTQ+ young people across the UK wonder whether things will ever get better. Whether they are navigating school, family, identity, or simply trying to find their place in the world, too many of them are doing it without the visibility, support, or role models they deserve. We exist to change that - to tell them clearly and consistently that it gets better, and that their lives have value exactly as they are.
It Gets Better UK is part of the global It Gets Better movement, present in over 20 countries. Since launching here in 2018, we have reached over 2.5 million people across all four nations through digital content, storytelling, and a growing volunteer community. We show up at Prides, we tell real stories, and we keep finding new ways to reach the young people who need to hear from us - through projects like our volunteer-led podcast and Voices of Wales, for example.
We are at a genuinely exciting point in our development. With a largely volunteer-led model that is embedded and working, and new trustees joining us to help shape our direction, we are focused on building a strategy that allows us to grow sustainably and serve LGBTQ+ young people more effectively across the UK. The people joining our board now will not just oversee that work - they will help design it.
We are looking for three new trustees, each bringing specific expertise:
Because we are a largely volunteer-led charity, our trustees tend to be more operationally involved than you might find at a larger organisation. This is a hands-on role, and one that offers a genuine opportunity to contribute your expertise to something that matters.
Please see the recruitment pack for more information.
It Gets Better UK envisions a world where all LGBTQ+ youth are free to live equally and know their worthiness and power as individuals.
