This is an advisory position, providing strategic direction, practical input and ideas at a board level. We are looking for individuals who can embrace our holistic approach to crime prevention and the relief of poverty, and who can support the executive Director in articulating, shaping and achieving the institute’s collective vision.
The post is for 2 years (renewable). In practice, this will involve active participation in the quarterly Board meetings and annual away day, and feeding into regular electronic discussions with the Executive Director and the Chair of the Board.
A £50 honorarium per physical meeting (voluntary) will be provided to cover all expenses incurred in relation to the delivery of the JD including attending board meetings, travel and other administrative expenses.
In addition, there will be opportunities for mutually negotiated engagement in paid consultancies, where appropriate. If NEDs are engaged in the operations through a consultancy, the organisational line management structure will need to be respected.

ILC is the UK’s leading authority on the impact of longevity on society. We combine evidence, solutions and networks to make change happen.
That doesn’t mean we’re just about protecting the interests of older people. It doesn’t mean we’re just about promoting their needs. And it doesn’t mean we’re just about prioritising their requirements.
The impact of longevity on society isn’t just about older people: it will impact everyone.
We know the implications of demographics, today and tomorrow.
- We know that every girl born today will have a one in four chance of living until she’s 100.
- We know that when she starts work, she will need to save at least 20% of her earnings every year in order to afford a comfortable retirement.
- We know that if she wants to buy her own home, she’ll probably need to wait until she’s over 35, in a relationship and working full time.
And that is where we come in.
We believe society has to adapt now so we can all enjoy the benefits of longevity, and we want a society that works for everyone, regardless of their age.
We are recruiting for new Trustees to join our dedicated and active Board of Trustees.

Love Rwanda Initiative
A youth and women organisation focused on empowerment programs with an emphasis on Sexual reproductive health and rights (SRHR), Mental health and Livelihoods.
-
Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights: Limited access to information and SRHR services: Challenge: Young people and women in Rwanda still remain out of reach from adequate information prior to their first sexual act, which brews misconception of facts hence leading to risk behaviors. High levels of teenage pregnancy and unsafe abortion: Challenge: Teenage pregnancy rates remain high and many young women continue to resort to unsafe abortions since they cannot access safety services. Gender-Based Violence Challenge: Gender-based violence, in particular sexual assault and domestic violence, is rampant against the health and well-being of women and girls.
-
Mental Health: Stigma/Lack of Awareness Challenge: The stigmatization of mental health issues prevails with a corresponding lack of awareness and understanding about mental health in the community. Lack of Mental Health Services: Challenge: The avenues available for mental health services are very few, and the personnel is few in number; therefore, accessibility to the required aid becomes difficult.
-
Livelihoods: Unemployment and Underemployment: Challenge: Most youths and women face high levels of unemployment or low wage employment with no stability. Lack of Entrepreneurial Opportunities: Challenge: Women and youth lack resources and facilitation to start and sustain enterprises of their own. Economic Dependency: Challenge: Economic dependency on male family members constrains women's autonomy and puts them at a low decision-making power.
- Comprehensive sexual education programs, partnering with local clinics to provide easy access, and raising awareness campaigns regarding SRHR in the community.
- Contraception, family planning, and müş promoting safe and legal abortion services.
- Support service provision to survivors of GBV, including counseling and legal aid, with community education on prevention of violence against women for gender equality.
- Conduct sensitization and campaigns to raise awareness on mental health, reduction of stigma, and promotion of good mental health in the community.
- Counseling centers, training of mental health professionals with peer support groups
- Provide vocational-training programs for people with marketable skills that will enhance job employability.
- Provide entrepreneurship training skills and financial literacy accompanied by access to micro-finance and grants for people willing to start small businesses.
- Economic Empowerment by means of livelihood programs that allow women to generate their own income towards financial independence.
Dear Volunteers,
Are you passionate about making a tangible difference in the lives of youth and women in Rwanda?
