Trustee
Royal Trinity Hospice
Clapham, London SW4
Trinity, the UK’s oldest hospice, was founded in 1891, and we have been an innovator and a leader in the hospice sector ever since.
Today, we provide expert specialist palliative and end of life care to over 2,500 patients each year from our state-of-the-art inpatient unit and in the community across seven central & south London boroughs.
In August 2019, the Care Quality Commission rated our care as Outstanding, and the impact of our new clinical model of care introduced in 2022 was recognised with a national Palliative and End of Life Care Award in 2025.
We are renowned for our patient-centred care and have an optimal nurse-to-patient ratio. This allows us to focus on high-quality nursing standards, giving clinicians the time and space to deliver the patient care that inspired them to join the profession.
We are an ambitious and forward-looking organisation with a clear strategic vision, with the goal of reaching even more people in our community who would benefit from our care.
We are working to do this within the context of the national hospice funding crisis and have a creative and robust financial plan to continue expanding our offer to beneficiaries.
This is an exciting time to be joining our organisation. We are looking for two trustees to join our Board, who will bring financial expertise, particularly in investments and fundraising, with the view that one individual will become the new Honorary Treasurer.
By joining the Board of Trinity, you’ll be joining a dedicated team with a shared ambition to provide the best quality care for our patients, helping them to make the best of every moment.
Potential Trustees should be able to demonstrate they have the following:
• Commitment to the charity and its vision and charitable objectives • Strategic vision suitable to support the charitable objectives
• Ability to make independent judgements and think creatively
• Understanding and acceptance of the legal duties, responsibilities and liabilities of charity trusteeship
• Ability to work effectively in a team
• Willingness to devote the necessary time and effort, including 10 meetings a year (4 Board; 4 sub-committee meetings; 2 Board Away Days)
• Willingness to attend fundraising and awareness raising events on behalf of the charity at least three times a year.
Our meetings:
• Our Board meetings are held four-times per year on Tuesday evenings, 17.00-19.00, in person at the hospice
• We run two whole-day Board Away Days each year to provide additional time for strategic discussion and trustee development
• We have four Committees which all meet four-times per year, with meetings on Tuesday afternoons and evenings, and Wednesday evenings
