Living Streets Trustee (3x)

Living Streets Trustee 

Living Streets is the UK charity for everyday walking. Our mission is to create a better walking environment and inspire more people to walk and wheel as part of everyday life. 

We are looking for Trustees to join our Board and help steer the charity as we prepare to launch our new strategy, taking us up to our centenary in 2029. This is an opportunity to support a charity whose work can influence everyone’s daily life. 

About Living Streets 

With our thousands of members and supporters, we campaign for positive change and influence policies that improve our streets. Our work includes encouraging families to walk to school, supporting slower speed limits, and tackling pavement parking and street clutter. 

We also manage innovative national projects with schools, communities and workplaces to encourage more people to walk short journeys. Our year-round walk to school challenge captures the imagination of children in more than 2,000 schools. 

Alongside this, we work with local authorities and businesses to improve streets and public spaces. Our research and reports, including The Pedestrian Pound, make a substantial contribution to the active travel agenda. 

Who we are looking for 

Our Trustees play a key role in shaping our strategy and helping bring it to life. We welcome applications from across the UK, particularly from people who can bring one or more of the following perspectives or areas of experience: 

• Experience of culture change in the charity, government or private sector. 

• Experience of social research in the charity, government or private sector. 

• Based in Scotland. 

• Based in Wales. 

We are seeking to broaden the diversity and gender balance of our Board, particularly following the recent end of terms for three women Trustees. Whatever your background, a commitment to Living Streets’ values and charitable objectives will be essential. 

These roles are voluntary and unpaid, although appropriate expenses will be reimbursed. 

Living Streets is committed to being an equal opportunities employer and welcomes applications from people of all backgrounds and experiences.

These roles are voluntary and unpaid, although appropriate expenses will be paid.
