Use your skills to ensure every child can grow up in the love of a family, never orphanages, and join the board of Hope and Homes for Children, a brave, can-do organisation with an ambitious and collaborative team.

Location: Open to applications from any global location

Time commitment: Up to a day a month

Closing date: Friday 2nd May

Who we are.

For almost 30 years, Hope and Homes for Children has been driven by an unwavering belief: every child deserves to grow up in a loving family, never in orphanages. We’re working to transform care systems and eliminate orphanages worldwide because we know that the last thing an orphanage can provide is the first thing a child needs – someone to love them. We help to bring millions of separated children back to family.

Our unique strength lies in our practice base – hands-on experience in successfully closing orphanages and reforming childcare systems. An estimated 5.4 million children live in institutions around the world. We’ve already helped reduce the number of children in Romanian institutions from over 100,000 to less than 4,000, and we’re close to eliminating ALL orphanages entirely in Romania, Bulgaria, Moldova and Rwanda whilst scaling our work across India, Nepal, South Africa, Kenya, and Ukraine to support overhauling their child care systems.

Our advocacy reached a watershed moment when all 193 UN member states unanimously agreed that orphanages must be eliminated – a historic first in global child welfare. Now, with refreshed branding and strategic partnerships that amplify our impact, we’re embarking on our most ambitious decade yet. Our goal? To create a decisive shift in how policymakers, businesses, and society view institutional care, establishing family-based care as the only acceptable standard.

We’re architects of systemic change, successfully influencing EU funding regulations to prioritise family-based care over institutions. We’re also working closely with governments to ensure child care reform remains central to Ukraine’s reconstruction efforts, and spearheading major conferences across Asia.  We’re building unstoppable momentum for change.

While our achievements are significant, they’re just the beginning of our journey to ensure every child grows up where they belong – in a loving family.

The opportunity.

As poverty deepens and discrimination persists, an estimated 5.4 million children remain confined in orphanages – 80% of whom have at least one living family member who could care for them with the right support. This is why our work has never been more critical.

We stand at a pivotal moment. By 2030, we aim to build a global consensus that orphanages are an unacceptable way to care for children. Working as a catalyst, our strategy ‘Alive With Hope’ focuses on three key objectives:

• Implementing national reform across 9 countries.
• Building influential partnerships to secure significant commitments to make child care reform a human imperative.
• Developing innovative financing mechanisms to support global reform.

To help drive this ambitious agenda forward, we’re seeking three exceptional individuals who share our unwavering commitment to transforming children’s lives to join us as trustees.

Who we are looking for.

As we drive toward this ambitious goal, and current board members come to the end of their terms, we are looking for someone to join us with the following skills and experiences:

• Strategic Leader: We’re seeking an individual with significant experience in one or more of the following areas; governance, risk management, partnerships, advocacy, or NGO leadership to strengthen our strategic oversight and help drive our ambitious plans forward. Understanding of the charity sector would be particularly valuable.

While Board meetings are usually held in London, there are options to join virtually, and we are open to applications from individuals based in any location.

We’re looking for individuals who:

• Bring energy, rigour, and an entrepreneurial spirit.
• Can act as critical friends, asking the challenging questions while remaining supportive.
• Are willing to invest time in understanding our work.
• Share our ‘can-do’ mentality and belief that change is possible.
• Can contribute to a collegiate board culture that values robust discussion and mutual support.

You believe fundamentally that children belong in families, never in orphanages. Beyond this commitment to our cause, you bring strategic vision coupled with practical insight and the ability to work collaboratively as part of our dedicated Board.

While Board meetings are usually held in London, there are options to join virtually, and we are open to applications from individuals based in any location.

If you share our values of courage, integrity, and excellence, we want to hear from you. We actively encourage applications from diverse backgrounds and experiences, as we believe this strengthens our ability to achieve our mission. We’re particularly interested in hearing from candidates from diverse ethnic minority backgrounds, women, and younger trustees who can bring fresh perspectives to our work.

You’ll join a high-calibre Board where your contribution will be valued. We provide comprehensive induction, including opportunities to visit our programs and see first-hand the transformation we’re achieving.

Time commitment.

Our Board meets quarterly in London (with an option to join virtually), with meetings designed to maximise engagement and impact. We also hold an annual two-day away day, either in the UK or one of our operational countries, providing valuable insights into our frontline work. Subcommittees meet virtually, 4-5 times annually, ensuring efficient use of trustees’ time while maintaining robust governance. Overall, we expect the time commitment to be up to a day a month, including board and committee meetings, ad hoc discussions and preparation for board meetings.

Created by a team of passionate dog lovers from the animal welfare group IAPWA, the I Love Hiking and Dogs UK Facebook community is a space to explore new walking routes, connect with like-minded dog owners, and take part in dog-friendly hiking meet-ups across the UK. While our group is designed for dog lovers, you don’t need to own a dog to get involved, everyone is welcome to join our community, share experiences, and take part in our group walks. Our meet-ups also offer an opportunity to support animal welfare causes, helping to improve the lives of dogs around the world.

About the Role
We are looking for enthusiastic, friendly volunteers to help coordinate and host local Wag & Walks in their area. These walks are casual, community-led dog walks where members of our Facebook group can meet up, enjoy nature, and connect with fellow dog lovers.

As a Wag & Walk Coordinator, you will:

• Organise and promote dog-friendly walks in your local area.
• Create Facebook events within the group, including key details about the walk (date, location, distance, difficulty).

• Welcome attendees on the day of the walk and ensure a friendly, inclusive atmosphere.

• Organised and able to coordinate group walks in your area.
• Enthusiastic about bringing your local dog-friendly community together.

Important Considerations

• Wag & Walk are peer-led walks, not official guided hikes. You will simply be organising a community walk rather than leading an event in any formal capacity.
• Each attendee is responsible for themselves and their dog. Your role is to coordinate, not supervise.
• You must clearly communicate walk details, including difficulty level and accessibility, so that attendees can make informed decisions.

Why Get Involved:

• A great way to meet fellow dog lovers and explore new walking routes.
• Contribute to building a supportive, dog-friendly community.
• Enjoy the outdoors while helping others connect through shared experiences.
• Have the opportunity to support animal welfare initiatives through our group activities.
