What we do
We help everyone use parks and their transformative health and wellbeing benefits. DEFRA estimates that if everyone spent time in parks, the NHS could save £2.1 billion a year, however often the people who could benefit most from using parks, do not.
We work with under-served communities to help them spend time in green space and we support small groups and community organisations to do the same. From supporting people with complex mental health needs to connect with nature and build community, to identifying and removing physical barriers to park access, we work to make sure parks fulfil their potential as free to use, community assets.
The role
As a Trustee, you will take the lead at board level, whilst ensuring that the collective responsibility of the Trustees for the management, support and development of our staff is maintained. All Trustees share responsibility for the organisation.
The main responsibilities of a Trustee is to:

- use their expertise to help guide the process;
- ensure the organisation works within the law and in line with its governing document and policies;
- keep informed about the activities of the charity in order to maintain effective oversight;
- take a financial overview and ensure that the organisation’s finances are adequate and responsibly managed;
- promote the work and safeguard the reputation of Your Park Bristol and Bath.
Skills and experience needed
Our beneficiaries come from all walks of life and hire great people from a variety of backgrounds because it makes us stronger. If you share our values and enthusiasm for health, nature and accessibility, you will find a home here.
All applicants will be treated equally but we want to build our level of lived experience of barriers to parks. Therefore, we are particularly interested in receiving applications from people who are from ethnically diverse backgrounds, Disabled people, people who are caring for a loved one, and/or from low-income households.
Please state in your cover letter whether you would like to be considered under our guaranteed interview scheme for Disabled or ethnic minority candidates. This scheme guarantees these groups an interview if they meet the essential skills, experience and qualities.

Typical tasks might include setting up devices, troubleshooting, supporting the rollout of software and hardware, or supporting staff to understand cyber security or how to use particular software. The team is always busy, and your actual duties can be flexible to suit your experience, skills and availability.
Training for this role can be tailored to the individual, and built up over time. Our ICT Team will introduce you to our systems and software. We will also support you to complete an online ICT Technician qualification, and potentially a Google Workspace Administration course. You’ll need to make a commitment to regular attendance in our city centre office.
This role will suit you if you’re considering developing a career in ICT. You’ll gain recognised qualifications as well as experience. Equally, if you’re at the other end of your career and have an aptitude for ICT issues, this would also suit you.
