Volunteer roles
Do you want to help improve healthcare for older people?
The British Geriatrics Society is seeking to appoint a new lay Trustee
The British Geriatrics Society is the professional membership organisation for doctors, nurses and other healthcare specialists working to provide healthcare for older people across the UK. We have more than 5,600 multidisciplinary members working in acute, primary and community care, united by a mission to improve the healthcare of older people. We are a registered charity and limited company based in Farringdon in Central London, with members in Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland and England.
The population is ageing. More people are living for longer, often with long-term conditions such as frailty or dementia. Older people are the population group who use the health service the most. Although there is a strong evidence base for what good care of older people should be, this is not being delivered everywhere, and too many older people find themselves at the mercy of a NHS system that does not work well for their needs. The BGS has a proud 80-year history of supporting the specialist workforce in older people’s healthcare. We are needed more than ever now, to ensure that services for older people across the UK are integrated, joined-up and effective. Why not see for yourself by joining our Board as a lay trustee? Help us to deliver our goal of improving the availability and quality of care for all older people across the UK.
The role
We are seeking to appoint a new lay trustee to succeed one of our two lay trustees who completes his term of office in July 2026. The BGS Trustee Board has twelve charity trustees, ten of whom are healthcare professionals, who lead different aspects of the BGS’s work. The Board is chaired by the BGS President, Professor Jugdeep Dhesi. In addition to the trustees, other senior officers, such as the Vice-Presidents, contribute to Board meetings. The BGS has a staff team of 16 who are paid, but all other roles are undertaken on a voluntary basis.
Trustees perform the following functions:
- Contributing to the strategic direction of the British Geriatrics Society (BGS), setting overall policy, defining goals, and setting targets and evaluating performance
- Providing governance to ensure compliance with charity law and good practice
- Scrutinising board papers, contributing to discussions, providing advice and guidance on new initiatives
- Supporting, constructively challenging, and motivating the Chief Executive and other senior staff
- Acting as a BGS ambassador, to promote the Society, the specialty and older people’s healthcare.
- Safeguarding the charity’s assets, including its financial sustainability
- Working in a collegiate way with fellow Board members to support the Chair and to provide timely, robust decision-making and leadership.
The person
The incoming lay trustee will:
- Be committed to the BGS mission of improving the healthcare of older people
- Have a good understanding of charities and charity governance, most likely through prior experience of being a trustee
- Have the ability to be strategic and collegiate
- Have some commercial experience to help the BGS in its goal of earning more income
- Have professional experience from one or more of the following areas: health or social care commissioning; charity senior management or trusteeship; policy influencing; digital strategy; business.
The BGS supports equality, diversity and inclusion. We value the independent perspective that lay trustees bring to this voluntary role.
The new lay member of the Trustee Board will join the BGS in time for the Board awayday in London on 30 July 2026. Their term of office will be two years, with the potential for a second term of two years.
Our trustees are unpaid, but we pay travel and other out of pocket expenses. We provide an induction to the BGS’s work. There are four Board meetings a year, with at least one held online. The in-person meeting in July includes a Board workshop.
Interviews for shortlisted candidates will be held online on 8/9 April

At SUNSHINE Charity, we are building a movement that brings warmth, connection, and belonging to those who feel unseen or alone. Our loneliness services are at the heart of that mission — gentle spaces where people can reconnect with others, with community, and with themselves.

Helping SUNSHINE Charity grow from a start‑up into a stable, impactful, community‑powered organisation.
Why this role matters
A new charity is full of passion — but passion needs structure. It needs leadership. It needs someone who can hold the operational heartbeat while the Founder holds the vision.
Your leadership will help us build strong foundations. Your clarity will help us grow with confidence. Your commitment will help ensure SUNSHINE Charity becomes a place where people feel safe, supported, and inspired.
You won’t just be managing operations — you’ll be shaping the future of our entire movement.
Who you are
You don’t need formal qualifications. You don’t need decades of experience. You just need heart — and a desire to build something meaningful.
If you’re organised, strategic, reliable, and excited by the idea of helping a charity grow from the ground up… If you enjoy leading people, improving systems, and turning vision into reality… If you want to make a real, lasting difference in the lives of volunteers and the people we serve…
