The British Home
Location: London (Streatham) – a mixture of online and in-person meetings
Remuneration: Voluntary role (reasonable expenses reimbursed)
Closing date: Monday, 13 April 2026
For more than 160 years, British Home has supported people living with complex neurological conditions, providing specialist neurorehabilitation and long-term care.
British Home is now entering an exciting new phase of clinical development. Recent investment has enabled the launch of a Level 2b intensive neurorehabilitation service and a specialist tracheostomy care ward, supporting British Home’s ambition to become a leader in neurorehabilitation and therapeutic care.
As the organisation continues to strengthen and expand its services, the Board is seeking to appoint three new Trustees with expertise in the following areas:
· Clinical
· Technology and Digital
· Property and Asset Management
Trustees play a vital role in ensuring The British Home delivers on its mission while maintaining the highest standards of governance, quality and accountability.
Working collaboratively with fellow Trustees and the executive team, you will help ensure the organisation delivers against its strategic objectives, operates effectively, and meets the expectations of its residents, patients and wider stakeholders.
Above all, we are looking for individuals who share The British Home’s commitment to excellent care, dignity and independence for those it supports, and who can bring thoughtful challenge, sound judgement and constructive support to Board discussions.
This is an opportunity to contribute your expertise to an organisation delivering life-changing rehabilitation and care, while helping to shape the future of specialist neurological services for those who need them most.
