About Us

The Chiltern Centre is a well-known and much-loved charity in Henley-on-Thames, supporting young adults with disabilities to live life to the fullest.

As we celebrate 21 years of impact, we’re preparing for our most ambitious project yet. With demand growing and a long waiting list, we’re expanding. We’ve been generously gifted an acre of land at Highlands Park, where we’ll build a new purpose-built facility designed specifically for young adults.

Why Join Us?

As a Trustee, you’ll play a vital role in helping us grow sustainably and responsibly. You’ll provide guidance, oversight, and support to our dedicated Senior Leadership team, helping to shape the future of The Chiltern Centre and the lives of the people we support.

This is a voluntary position, but the personal reward is significant—you’ll be part of a passionate, dynamic team driving real, lasting change.

We’re Looking For:

We welcome applicants from a wide range of backgrounds, however, we are particularly interested in people with the following experience:

• Legal Expertise
  A qualified solicitor with general legal experience who can provide guidance on the kinds of issues small, people-focused charities typically face.
• Building or Project Management
  Someone with experience in building procurement, or large project management—skills that will help us successfully deliver our new facility over the next 5 years.

Join us in shaping a brighter, more inclusive future.
