Location: Dorcester

Time commitment: 1 – 2 days per month

About Weldmar Hospicecare

Weldmar Hospicecare is an independent local charity that cares for people living with a life limiting illness, such as cancer, heart disease, or motor neurone disease. We also support the loved ones of our patients. We have been providing our care for the people of Dorset since 1994.

Our individually tailored care – where we focus on the person, not just their symptoms and illness – takes place in patients’ own homes, in community hospitals and care homes, and at our Inpatient Unit in Dorchester.

Weldmar supports more than two thousand people across the north, south, and west of Dorset each year. All our care is provided free of charge. We help people live as good a life as possible when their illness cannot be cured.

Our team of staff includes specialist nurses, doctors, physiotherapists and occupational therapists, counsellors, chefs, maintenance engineers, complementary therapists, retail professionals, and experts in fundraising, marketing, finance, people services, and more. A number of dedicated volunteers in many aspects of our work support us.

As an independent charity, we rely on donations, fundraising events and our charity shops to fund our work.

About the role

Weldmare Hospicecare services are rated ‘outstanding’ by the CQC, and we are seeking a clinically experienced Trustee to join our Board.

This is an exciting time to join the hospice; we are in a strong financial position, with many exciting priorities underway, including a big project in the Inpatient Unit and the creation of new outpatient services. We are currently refurbishing and updating our retail outlets and have good partnerships in our bordering counties of Somerset, Hampshire, Devon and Wiltshire.

To support our plans, the Board is now looking to appoint a new clinical Trustee to replace those whose terms have come (or are coming) to an end.

First-time Trustees and those seeking personal development would be welcome to apply.

We are also looking for those with senior experience in the health care sector, with experience working at a cross-agency level. We are open to a broad range of senior leadership experience, particularly nursing and allied health professionals. Whilst prior experience of end of life/palliative care would be advantageous, it isn’t essential.

You will act as a strong sounding board to the Chair, fellow Trustees and the executive team, and be able to provide strong strategic advice and overview.

We particularly welcome applicants from those who are under-represented on our Trustee Board, such as women, disabled people and individuals from black and minority ethnic communities.

• The Board sets the strategic direction of the College and monitors College performance by setting targets and agreeing key performance indicators with the Executive Team.
• The Board, led by the Chair, provides checks and balances to the operational Executive Team led by the Principal & CEO.

Join the Board of an organisation working in partnership with people with learning disabilities to support them to achieve the life they want.

Applications close Monday 15th September.

Location: Hapstead Village, Buckfastleigh TQ11 0JN

About us

In the rolling countryside on the outskirts of Dartmoor National Park, something special is happening at Camphill Devon Community. At our Hapstead Village, six carefully designed houses provide more than just registered residential accommodation – they create a vibrant, supportive home where adults with learning disabilities and autism don’t simply live, but truly thrive.

Our reach extends beyond Hapstead into the wider communities of Teignbridge and South Hams, where we provide supported living services that honour each person’s individual journey toward independence and fulfilment. This isn’t about fitting people into predetermined boxes; it’s about crafting person-centred approaches that recognise the unique gifts, dreams, and aspirations that each resident brings to our community.

What makes Camphill Devon truly distinctive is our unwavering belief that everyone has something valuable to contribute. We’ve fostered an environment where people don’t just receive support – they give it too, creating mutual care and respect that defines Camphill Communities across the globe. It’s a place where active, fulfilling lives aren’t just possible; they’re the natural outcome of thoughtful, compassionate community living.

About the roles

As we look toward the future, we’re seeking two new Trustees to join our Board and help steer our strategic direction. We’re looking for engaged individuals who can both challenge our thinking and provide support. You’ll be someone who appreciates the delicate balance between holding us accountable to our mission while championing the innovative work we do every day.

Who we are looking for

The expertise we’re seeking speaks to the heart of what makes our community work. We are looking for someone whose professional journey has taken them across adult social care and health. You’ll bring that invaluable perspective that comes from navigating CQC regulations and championing person-centred service delivery in real-world settings. Your experience will help us maintain the highest standards while staying true to our community ethos. Whether you’ve worked within charities, regulated care environments, or supported living services, your insight into the sector and best practices will prove invaluable as we continue to evolve and grow.

Our second trustee search focuses on the people who make everything possible – our dedicated team. We’re looking for an HR professional who can help us navigate the complexities of sustaining a workplace that is deeply values-driven. Your expertise in staff engagement, organisational culture and employment law will be key as we support our workforce in delivering life-changing care. You’ll understand how to balance regulatory requirements with the kind of supportive, inclusive environment where our staff and volunteers can flourish alongside the people they support.

What unites both roles is a shared commitment to the Camphill ethos and a willingness to engage meaningfully in governance. We need strategic thinkers who can offer critical insight while supporting our executive leadership. You’ll be someone who sees the bigger picture, understands the challenges facing adult social care, and believes passionately in the rights, independence, and wellbeing of adults with learning disabilities.

These roles offer the opportunity to contribute to something that extends far beyond policy and procedure. You’ll be helping to nurture a community where every person’s dignity is respected, where individual needs aren’t just acknowledged but celebrated, and where the concept of inclusive living becomes a lived reality rather than an aspiration.

Time commitment:

With quarterly board meetings, committee work, our annual strategy away day, regular engagement with our dedicated team, occasional community visits, and the thoughtful preparation these responsibilities need, you can expect to invest approximately the equivalent of up to a day a month.

We’re committed to diversity and inclusion, and we particularly welcome applications from those with lived experience of disability or professional experience in learning disability support. If you’re ready to help write the next chapter of Camphill Devon’s story and bring either deep health and social care expertise or HR excellence to our mission, we’d love to hear from you.

We have a vision for accessible employment; that disabled people can have a career in the music and live event industries.

We want our Board to be representative of the communities that it serves, so we’re particularly interested in people who identify as disabled, deaf and/or neurodivergent and who are from diverse backgrounds, including from lower socio-economic backgrounds and from regions outside of London.  We are particularly interested in hearing from senior leaders in the music industry, those with strong knowledge and experience of the fundraising landscape and individuals with policy experience.
