This is a great opportunity to play a strategic role making a significant impact on the future of our services. We’re looking for people who have a passion for tackling poverty and supporting their local community. We’re inviting people to apply who can bring their skills and experience to support the staff team, and their time to commit to working towards the eradication of food poverty whilst supporting our work in providing emergency food to people across Oldham facing crisis and hardship.

The Iona Community is seeking to appoint up to three new Directors (Trustees) to join our Council from the 2026 AGM.
This is a significant and rewarding opportunity to contribute to the governance and strategic direction of an international, ecumenical Christian movement rooted in hope and lived in community.
About the role
Directors of the Iona Community are also charity Trustees. Together, Council members hold collective responsibility for the governance, strategy and overall stewardship of the Community, ensuring that our work is faithful to our vision, values and charitable purposes. This role is one of strategic oversight, not day-to-day operational management, which is carried out by employed staff.
Trustees are expected to act with care and diligence, to safeguard the ethos and reputation of the Iona Community, and to help ensure that we remain legally, financially and spiritually sustainable for the future.
Who we are looking for
We are keen to hear from people who are aligned with the vision, purpose and values of the Iona Community and who can contribute thoughtfully and constructively to Council discussions.
Applicants may be Members, Associate Members, Friends of the Iona Community, or people from beyond the membership. We are particularly mindful of the need for a diverse mix of skills, backgrounds, perspectives and life experience on Council, and welcome applications from people who may not have previous trustee experience.
Trustees are encouraged to bring both professional expertise and a willingness to engage deeply with the life, faith and common task of the Community.
We believe in the transformational power of community to change lives and that work for justice, peace and an equitable society is a matter of urgency

Food Bank Aid is a dynamic and committed organisation, full of people who care deeply about the impact of poverty on the lives of Londoners.
• Poverty rates in London have been higher than in the rest of England for at least the last two decades
• Latest reports have also captured that London has the highest child poverty rate in England with 1 in 3 children (700,000) living in poverty.
Poverty Hurts More Than Just Pockets. It steals health. It erodes confidence. It causes stigma. It isolates.
Now is our time to act.
Food Bank Aid is a young charity with a clear sense of purpose of keeping the food banks fed, and we want to reach even more food banks in the years ahead.
We are appointing three new Trustees to strengthen our Board, broaden our expertise and support the setting and delivery of our strategy for the next phase of the charity’s development. These appointments reflect our ambition for Food Bank Aid’s future and our commitment to building a Board that reflects the diversity of the communities we serve.
The three profiles of expertise sought are:
1. A Chair (with previous leadership experience ideally in the not-for-profit sector)
2. A Trustee with income generation experience and expertise
3. A Trustee with Charity Governance experience
We value curiosity, integrity, thoughtful judgement and a genuine commitment and passion to our mission.
If our purpose resonates with you and you want to make a meaningful difference for food banks and their clients in London, we would be delighted to hear from you.

If you care about equity in the arts, believe creative talent should thrive in Bradford, and want to play a part in shaping cultural change locally and nationally, we’d love to hear from you.
Bradford Producing Hub is an artist-led charity working to dismantle barriers in the arts and build more equitable systems in their place. Our vision is a just and joyful cultural future – powered by people, rooted in place, and open to all.
We support artists and creatives through development programmes, sector advocacy and strategic partnerships. We work locally in Bradford and influence nationally.

If you have ever looked at arts leadership and felt it did not reflect you, this is an invitation to help change that.
What does being a trustee involve?
Trustees shape our long-term strategy, influence cultural policy, and hold the organisation to account in line with our charitable aims.
