Job description
Starlight aims to ensure that children’s healthcare services fully reflect the importance of play to their health, wellbeing, resilience and recovery. Could you join their Board and help accelerate their impact on young lives through your philanthropic knowledge and networks?
Location: London
Time commitment: Up to 1 day per month
Closing date: 9 a.m. Monday 13th May
Who we are.
Starlight is the national charity for children’s play in healthcare. They support children to experience the power of play during treatment, care and recovery from illness in more than 600 healthcare settings across the UK.
Starlight believes that children’s healthcare services should fully reflect the importance of play to their health, wellbeing and resilience and that every child who is an inpatient should have daily play opportunities, appropriate to their condition, supported by dedicated play staff. They aim to enable all children in the UK to have their right to play protected and provided for when they are receiving healthcare – in or out of hospital.
Their recent report shows:
- 71% of Trusts and Health Boards do not have a designated budget for play resources.
- 85% of Trusts and Health Boards have no appropriate guidance or standards for health play.
- An average ratio of only one full-time HPS for 3,986 child admissions to hospital per year and there are 1.8 million hospital admissions for 0-17 year olds each year.
Starlight provides toys, technology, toolkits and training for play professionals to alleviate the immediate trauma that children are experiencing in hospitals across the UK. Using their uniquely curated research and evidence base, they also work towards systemic change in healthcare, galvanising a collaborative effort for the changes that are needed through policy and advocacy work.
About the role.
Starlight’s income needs to grow in pace with demand for its vital role as Champion and Protector of Play. The new Philanthropy Trustee role has been created to support this growth in a collaborative, relational and strategic way. This new Trustee will support the development of collaborative relationships and partnerships with individuals and organisations to grow income. They will bring a passion for Starlight’s work, ideas, introductions and opportunities as well as a contemporary and values-led mindset. They will work with the CEO and Director of Fundraising and Marketing to generate high-value philanthropic support in an enlightened and empowering way.
Who we are looking for.
An individual with a commitment to Starlight’s mission and vision and an understanding of how to create strategic income growth through relationships with individuals and organisations.
A person with a positive partnership approach to working.
Benefits.
The chance to make a transformative difference to children’s experience of healthcare across the UK through play.
