Do you want to support a global movement that shares the struggle of people with learning disabilities for voice, rights and community? If so, you could make a profound contribution to L’Arche through joining our Board of Trustees.

L’Arche in the UK is part of a worldwide movement of people with and without learning disabilities building community together. We aim to be a beacon for our society - of what social care can be, what life with learning disabilities can be, and what a more human society can be.
Our 11 Communities in England, Scotland and Wales offer a varied mix of adult supported living, registered care, and day services. We focus on building mutual relationships and going beyond traditional care models to celebrate the value of every individual.
L’Arche was first founded on Christian principles. These principles mean we stand for radical inclusion, and for the right of every person to flourish in their spirituality, whatever their background.

Ability to work independently in a remote, flexible environment.
What You’ll Bring
Creative ideas that help us stand out and spread joy.
A strategic approach to building awareness and engagement.
A commitment to inclusive, accessible communication.
Energy, enthusiasm, and a love of storytelling.
An understanding of how to build a brand that feels human, warm, and community‑centred.
What You’ll Gain
The chance to shape the public identity of a new charity from day one.
A meaningful portfolio of purpose‑driven campaigns and content.
Experience in charity communications, brand development, and strategic messaging.
A supportive team who values creativity, collaboration, and heart.
