About us
The Tudor Trust is a grant-making organisation with a long-standing commitment to funding smaller, grassroots organisations. We are winding down our current grant-making strategy and are reevaluating and developing a new strategy centred around racial, social and economic justice.
In tandem with our strategy review, we are undergoing a comprehensive change process, which includes refreshing our Board and rebuilding our staff team.

About the role
Ahead of Tudor Trust’s 70th anniversary in 2025, a moment that coincides with the transitioning of the Board from family to independent trustees, we are looking for a historian of postwar Britain to produce a comprehensive report that celebrates Tudor’s impact, marks key milestones of change in the organisation’s history, and reflects on the social and political context in which Tudor has developed since 1955.

Rare opportunity: Help those affected by road crashes and create lasting change with Brake, the renowned road safety charity.
Who we are: Brake has been supporting victims of road carnage since 1995, and we're on a mission to prevent future collisions. Every 20 minutes, someone is killed or seriously injured on our roads, impacting lives profoundly.
Join our team: We're expanding our National Road Victim Service and need a dedicated Caseworker to join our dynamic, compassionate team. Your role will involve delivering world-class support services to those at their most vulnerable.
Not your average job: This isn't a 9 to 5. You could play a significant part in rolling out trauma-informed support services nationwide. Make a real difference in the lives of those affected by road traffic collisions.
What we offer:
- A generous 35 days of annual leave (including bank holidays and 3-day shutdown period between Christmas and New Year. Pro-rata for part-time working patterns)
- An extra day off for your birthday to take whenever you choose
- Enhanced sick pay and compassionate leave
- Death in service benefit
- Employee Assistance Programme
- Flexible working
- Ongoing support and clinical supervision
- Be part of a skilled, friendly team with an engaged Board of Trustees
Who you are: We are looking for dedicated, adaptable and empathic people with a background in providing high-quality emotional support and advocacy. Experience gained in the following kinds of roles tends to transfer well to the role of caseworker at Brake: police force, roles within the criminal justice system, family liaison officer, counsellor, experience in health and social care or previous caseworker experience in any area.
Specifically seeking candidates that have:
- A full clean UK driving licence, with your own vehicle and a willingness to use it for work purposes (travel expenses will be reimbursed)
- Ideally located in the Kent or Essex or surrounding area. You will support service users through their preferred communication method, which may be via Teams or telephone and there will be some face-to-face meetings with clients in their own home or safe meeting place
- Experience of frontline care for people in crisis with acute vulnerabilities and risks (desirable but not essential)
- Comprehensive understanding of the processes involved in the criminal justice system (desirable but not essential)
- Research and advocacy skills – you will reach out to other organisations to support your cases where required
- Significant resilience, and willingness to be professionally developed and clinically supervised
We are interested in receiving applications, not to the exclusion of others, from candidates with experience supporting people who have suffered sudden bereavement or working with those with heightened vulnerabilities.
The greatest reward comes from knowing you have made a real positive difference to someone’s recovery from psychological trauma, and the emotional or practical challenges presented by their sudden bereavement or serious injury.
If you are seeking out a new challenge and think you have the skills, passion, and commitment that we are looking for, we would be interested in hearing from you.
About the team and how we work
Brake is passionate about creating an inclusive workplace that values diversity. We welcome your application whatever your background or situation. We particularly welcome applications from those who are part of the global majority, the LGBTQIA+ community or disabled. We are proud to be a disability confident employer. We don’t want you to ‘fit’ our culture, we want you to enrich it.
So, if you have a passion for making a difference and share in our vision for a world where no one is killed on our roads, we would love to hear from you.
The successful candidate will be required to go through an enhanced DBS vetting process due to the sensitive nature of the service delivered.
We do not accept applications from serious traffic offenders due to the nature of our work. Candidates will be asked to disclose any unspent points at interview. Employees are subject to driver licence checks.
To apply
Submit your CV and a covering letter which clearly demonstrate you have what it takes to perform this challenging and rewarding role.

Are you the Youth Project Manager we’re looking for?
Let’s start with the expected bits of the role profile, just so we all know the basics
Reporting to: CEO
Responsible for: Development and Delivery of youth work provision
Location: Cumbria wide (and WFH, ARC HQ, Flexible)
Salary: £36,000.00
Why do we need this role?
Anti Racist Cumbria exists to make Cumbria an anti-racist county. That’s our aim. If we’re serious about doing that we need everyone (or more people than not) to want that too, and to work with us to make that happen. And yes, that means we need the young people who live here to be a part of that too.
Your job isn’t to run the projects, although there might be some of that at the the start whilst you get things moving (there’s more about that below), your job is to manage them via actions like:
-
setting them up
-
scoping the costings to enable them to happen
-
working out where the money for this will come from
-
figuring out what the team to run them needs to look like
-
recruiting the young people to be part of them
You’re not a youth worker, you’re a manager of projects that are driven by youth workers and led by young people.
Main duties and responsibilities
Your job will be to build and coordinate projects that the young people want to do in creative ways, and to ensure that the projects meet our aim of becoming an anti-racist county. There is a current team of part time, self employed youth workers who do not work set hours or set days, so a big part of your job will be to work out what you need in terms of people and resources for projects, then work to deliver on that. The projects that you’re overseeing are with, and for, young people, so sessions will naturally take place during evenings, possibly at weekends, during school holidays and sometimes overnight (residentials) in a variety of settings. So you will need to be prepared for varied and often unsociable hours when projects are forming and during their life spans.
It’s also important to understand that although this is a project management role, initially as you start out, it will inevitably involve meeting and engaging with lots of young people. As projects begin to be created you’ll therefore need to be a key part of the delivery team and working directly with the young people. That means you will be delivering for a while as you get things off the ground, but longer term we envision you stepping back from direct delivery once things are up and running smoothly. So if working directly with young people is NOT your thing, even for a short period of time, this isn’t the role for you. Equally if working directly with young people and ONLY working directly with young people is your bag, again this job isn’t for you.
You will need:
-
the ability to manage a team of youth workers and build a foundation based on what good teamwork looks like. You will need to figure out who your team are, what skills they have or don’t have and what they will and can do: whilst assessing what else you might need in terms of support to develop your projects, including further recruitment of staff and volunteers
-
to be able to work evenings, weekends and during school holidays yourself and take part in residentials too
-
to get to know the young people who are already involved in ARC youth projects (we have Young Black ARCtivists/TikTok project running at the moment and our Living Whilst Black Youth project is currently on hold but we’d like to see that reinstated in whatever way they young people would like). You’ll find out more about them and develop a relationship with them, as well as strengthening their relationships with the existing youth work team
-
to spend a good amount of your time scoping, exploring and investigating to begin to find out what’s already out there, who is doing what, where and how, and to form new relationships across broad spectrums of Cumbria’s young people
-
to support a programme of projects, ensuring anti-racism is embedded throughout, but at the same time remembering that projects need to engage and meet young people where they are at - with an asset-based approach that puts them at the centre of the work, not a ‘this is what we’re doing’ one. Your
job is to ensure you and your team amplify their voices, voices which often go unheard or un-listened to, it’s not be their voice per se
-
to recognise that it's also important to ensure that whilst the ARC youth programme places young people first, there is no adultification here, projects are youth led, informative, challenging…and fun.
-
to bear in mind that all of this is going to take money, so you will need to apply for small funding pots (and manage the budgets for these yourself) and with the support of the CEO, apply for larger funding pots which you will manage along with the Digital and Ops Manager
-
to recognise that your team will look to you for safeguarding and welfare of children responsibilities, so you will need to know what your duties are, stay up to date yourself and ensure you keep your youth work team up to date too. You’ll also need to think about how you deal with issues that might arise during projects and sessions delivering on projects
-
to monitor, record and evaluate work and provide reports and information as required in order to ensure a consistently high quality provision and demonstrate the impact of the projects you are managing.
-
to be aware of and adhere to Anti Racist Cumbria policies and procedures, in particular Safeguarding and racial trauma awareness.
That’s a lot to do isn’t it? And it isn’t an exhaustive list, so we want to manage your expectations from the start - it’s a big job! Check the person specification below to see if you have the managerial skills needed for this job.
Person Specification
You will need to be extremely passionate about anti-racism; we are under no illusions that engaging in anti-racist practice exposes activists (and you will need to be an activist) to an increasingly profound awareness of white supremacy, structural racism and other intersecting structured systems of inequity (i.e. sexism, homophobia, transphobia, ableism). As such you’ll need to evidence and demonstrate your own anti-racist journey.
Passion about this work isn’t enough on its own; you need to believe in young people and what they bring to the party, and you need to be creative and high achieving (but not necessarily in a qualifications way).

A strong and passionate commitment to anti-racism.
-
Strong commitment to young people and ability to engage and build positive and professional relationships with all kinds of young people - (just because you are not always directly working with young people doesn’t mean you don’t engage with them, and that engagement needs to be a positive experience for all)
-
Strong commitment to an asset based approach and have the creative drive to bring your team (and in turn young people) with you and with us
-
Patience, flexibility, resilience and an ability to be resourced both emotionally and physically to do this work (with ARC’s regular wellbeing support topping this up)
Skills
-
Strong project management skills
-
Along with the knowledge of factors affecting lives of young people (under Knowledge above) in our communities, the ability to provide reliable support to them and your team in times of stress

-
Ability to communicate confidently with a wide range of people and organisations using platforms that work for your audience
-
Ability to identify and challenge racism and other intersectional and discriminatory behaviors, taking appropriate action as necessary.
-
Ability to monitor, evaluate and report using a wide range of information and research to inform and measure your understanding and outcomes
-
Ability to coach or mentor others and bring out the best in them
-
Strong IT skills (emails, googledrive, sheets, docs), smart phone camera and basic pic editing
-
Ability to keep accurate, confidential and up-to-date work records, in line with our policies and procedures
-
Ability to work independently to deliver projects and specific pieces of work
-
Ability to work as part of a team
-
Ability to listen and to understand (even if you don’t agree with) the perspective and views of others
Experience of

Working with Black and Brown global majority communities

-
Funding applications (whether small or large)
-
Promoting, reaching and engaging with young people through avenues such as social media
General
We do need you to have an enhanced CRB certificate which is in accordance with our Child Protection and Safeguarding procedures, but if you haven’t got one and you get the job, we will organise this. We’re just letting you know you can’t do the job without one.
Driving license and access to a car would be a big bonus- Cumbria is a big place! But we understand that not everyone drives so this is not a dealbreaker.
And finally…you will be working in a Black led organisation and we want to see more Black people, Brown people and people from under-represented groups in our growing and positive team. Anyone who joins ARC will be supported in an anti-racist environment with a fantastic network of volunteers and a Board of Trustees from a wide range of backgrounds; age, economic, gender, sexuality, ethnicity, heritage and cultures.

Who we’re looking for
We are seeking a new Trustee who has a scientific background and knowledge of animal free research. You should be passionate about our vision, mission and values, and driven to support the Animal Free Research UK Board and team in achieving our charitable aims.
Previous experience of being a Trustee is not necessary as a full induction and ongoing support will be provided.
Equality, diversity and inclusion
We want everyone we work with, as a colleague, volunteer, supporter, or someone we support, to feel included and that they belong at Animal Free Research UK. We are committed to building a diverse organisation that represents the communities we serve and ensuring inclusion in everything we do. We will support you to make sure that you bring your whole self and can be at your best.
Board meetings and time commitment
The Board ordinarily meets four times per year in March, May, August and November. Two of these meetings are held remotely via video call on a Saturday, and two are held in person in London across weekends. In addition, Trustees are encouraged to join a Committee relevant to their area of expertise which meets at least once per quarter via video call. An appropriate time commitment will be required over the course of the year for preparative work between meetings. Trustees are also invited to attend occasional charity events and join recruitment panels on an ad hoc basis.
Following a probationary period where Trustee-elects attend at least 2 board meetings, appointed Trustees serve a three-year term, with the option to renew for a further three years. Trusteeship is an unremunerated position, though reasonable out-of-pocket expenses will be paid. If this opportunity to join a small but ambitious charity appeals to you, and you have enthusiasm and a commitment to our vision of a world where animal-free, human-specific technologies secure breakthroughs for patients then we’d like to hear from you.

About the role
Ever wondered what it means to work at a grassroots organisation, working hard to fight poverty in the community? Well, this is your chance. We have a unique and exciting opportunity for someone interested in gaining first-hand experience working on the frontlines of a fast-paced, guest-facing charity.
Sufra has always been #MoreThanAFoodbank, and this role is key to Sufra’s journey in trialling different methods of supporting residents. We are partnering with SALIENT, a team of researchers who are working with the public, partners from local and national government, food charities, community support teams, and the food industry on a range of food-related trials. In particular, they will be conducting a trial at Sufra where a range of different support is offered to Food Bank guests. The aim of the trial is to assess the impact of these different methods, and hopefully come closer to learning what support our guests prefer to receive from our food bank service.
The ideal candidate will work well in a busy environment and will have great people skills. They will have some experience in a customer-facing role, dealing with the public and potentially vulnerable individuals. The successful candidate will be the first point of contact for members that register with the pilot project and will be confident answering queries confidently speaking about the trial. The candidate will work closely with the Food Aid Manager and SALIENT researchers to ensure accurate data tracking once participants are registered, including collating receipts, supporting with feedback interviews, capturing case studies and logging visits. The role will also include supporting the distribution of both parcels and vouchers and ensuring meticulous financial records of this are kept.
People skills are crucial to success in this role, as the successful candidate will be working alongside a range of people, ensuring that they are supported throughout the trial. Due to the diverse nature of Sufra guests, it would be beneficial for this candidate to speak Arabic, Somali, Farsi, or another community language.
This is an immensely rewarding role working in a dynamic charity built on an ethos of sharing, hospitality and inclusivity. Through your activities, you will be able to convey the charity’s passion and commitment to supporting vulnerable people and demonstrate the impact of our interventions in transforming the lives of beneficiaries. There will be training provided by both Sufra and the SALIENT team before the successful candidates starts leading on this exciting project.
We would encourage applications from local residents, with knowledge of the London Borough of Brent to apply.
