Join Chailey Heritage Foundation as a Trustee and help shape the future for children and young people living with complex disabilities.

Applications close Tuesday 6th May.

Location: North Chailey, Lewes, Sussex, BN8 4EF

Who we are.

For over a century, Chailey Heritage Foundation has been a beacon of support for children and young people living with complex disabilities.

Our Ofsted ‘Outstanding’ school, welcoming residential homes and bustling centre combining gym and art therapy, a farm and café create a thriving community of support.  Our expert teams dedicate time, patience and curiosity to nurturing the potential of every child and young person who comes to us.

Our expertise, innovation and unwavering commitment have made us a leader in our field.

Every day, we witness the extraordinary impact of our work—a child using assistive technology to communicate for the first time, a young adult gaining the confidence to take their first steps towards adulthood, or a family finding the specialist support they need to navigate a world that often feels inaccessible. None of this happens by chance; it is the result of dedicated professionals, pioneering approaches, and strong governance.

A Board for the Future

With the launch of our new 5 year strategy and with some retirements coming up on the Board, we are looking to expand our Board and bring in new expertise to help us navigate this next chapter.

The Role of a Trustee

Trustees at Chailey Heritage Foundation play a crucial role in shaping our strategy, ensuring our financial resilience, and maintaining the high standards that define our work. This is a critical time for us as we adapt to a changing landscape in education, healthcare, and social care. We need Trustees who are not only passionate about our mission but who can bring insight, leadership and challenge to our discussions.

About the role.

We are particularly keen to hear from individuals with experience in the following areas – you could come with a variety of the following skills:

• Education, SEND: experience in special educational needs, disability policy, or practice
• Clinical: medical, nursing, therapy, or allied health professions
• Social Care: understanding of policy, and best practice in social care for children and adults
• Safeguarding: understanding of safeguarding of children and adults
• Finance: a Chartered Accountant with recent or current leadership experience
• Digital: IT, data, or technology transformation including assistive technology

A Rewarding Commitment

The role of a Trustee is voluntary but highly rewarding. On average, Trustees contribute around one day per month to the role, attending at least three Board meetings per year and participating in one or more sub-committees focused on key areas such as safeguarding, finance and quality standards. Overall, including ad hoc conversation with Board Members and the executive, we expect the time commitment to be the equivalent of a day a month.

Interviews will include a tour and round-table discussion with a small panel consisting of the Chair of Trustees, CEO, and one other Trustee relevant to the skills we are seeking.

We understand that joining a Board is a significant commitment, which is why we provide a comprehensive induction programme and ongoing support to ensure new Trustees feel confident in their role. You will be joining a highly engaged, committed group of professionals who work together to ensure that Chailey Heritage Foundation continues to make a life-changing impact.

Join Us

If you believe in what we do and want to use your skills to make a lasting difference, we would love to hear from you. Whether you are an experienced Trustee or considering your first Board role, we encourage applications from individuals who share our commitment to enabling children and young people with complex disabilities to thrive.
