Via is an exceptional charity that puts people at the heart of everything we do.

With a turnover of £36m for 24/25 and remarkable growth of over a third in 2023/24, we’re now supporting over 12,500 service users annually across an expanding geographical footprint from London to Gloucestershire.

SLOW, an award-winning charity supporting bereaved families, is excited to welcome an experienced Chair to lead our Board of Trustees, when our current Chair retires in June 2026. The appointee will be tasked with moving the organisation to the next level in delivering the sustainable growth of its bereavement services. 

Verture has been supporting communities and organisations to adapt to a changing climate for over 30 years. We are looking to appoint four new Trustees to join our engaged Board at an exciting time, as we launch our new strategy for 2026–2031.

We are interested in hearing from people who have knowledge, skills, and experience in:

• Income diversification and fundraising
• Social justice
• HR leadership and the development of learning and education programmes
• Finance / Treasurer experience
• Legal & Governance / Charity law

We are seeking Trustees who are strategic thinkers, collaborative, constructive, and able to act as charity ambassadors.

We encourage applicants from all backgrounds to apply. We welcome applications from those seeking first-time board experience and are actively seeking to attract and support a diversity of backgrounds, experience, and thinking on our Board.
