Trustee Volunteer Roles in Home Based

Join Neuroverse Charity as a Trustee

Contribute to the ever-evolving landscape of support and inclusion for the Neurodivergent community.

Our purpose:

We are a brand new nonprofit, grassroots charity, currently in its founding stages. We are recruiting trustees to become part of our innovative, changemaking governing body to grow Neuroverse into a leading force for neurodivergent support and empowerment.

We have multiple aims that are all reflective of the lived experiences of our own community and the common themes and needs that show up again and again and desperately need addressing and responding to. Examples are:

• Inconsistent, non-inclusive models: Many learning models lack a unified, inclusive approach to community support.
• Lack of holistic, authentic community spaces: Few environments foster learning, creativity, and support, leading to isolation.
• Insufficient support for the newly diagnosed: Limited resources and nonmedical, compassionate support are available for those newly diagnosed and their caregivers.

Who our charity needs currently:

A project manager / fundraiser - to lead fundraising efforts and manage projects that make a difference.

An educational leader - to bring valuable insights from your teaching background, such as experience as a former SEND teacher or in a similar educational role.

A treasurer - to ensure financial sustainability and transparency in our growing charity

Why Become a Trustee with Neuroverse Charity?

Champion Changemaking: Be an innovative, grassroots leader, creating much-needed and impactful social change with and for the neurodivergent community.

Collaborative Impact: Work remotely alongside a committed and passionate neurodiverse team to empower and support in a strengths-based way.

Shape Our Future: Influence and be part of the direction and success of a charity that is ever-evolving for the greater good.

How we’ll make a difference:

We will create an ethics bound, inclusive model centred on community, designed for replication across the UK. Our holistic spaces will foster learning, creativity, and support for the neurodivergent community. We will provide welcoming environments with experienced facilitators, combat isolation with regulating spaces for parents and carers, and offer newly diagnosed people tailored courses and resources. Grounded in warmth, humour, and positive action, our nonmedical therapeutic support will ensure everyone feels valued, empowered and heard.

What else?

We work flexibly, with monthly Zoom meetings. You can manage your time (and your spoons) around your commitments, working when it suits you best.

Neuroverse Charity is committed to embracing diversity and intersectionality in all forms. We encourage applications from individuals across the UK of all backgrounds, including those with lived experience of neurodivergence and disability.

Friendly, accessible interviews via Zoom will take place for these voluntary roles.

We are seeking to appoint a Trustee Safeguarding Lead to provide strategic oversight and leadership for the organisation, particularly in the area of Safeguarding.

The purpose of your role is to work alongside the other trustees to ensure that the Association is working towards its charitable purposes, is complying with all applicable rules and laws, and is making best use of its resources to achieve its aims.

Whilst safeguarding is the responsibility of all trustees, as Trustee Safeguarding Lead, you will  provide support to the CEO and the Operational Safeguarding Lead in their operational roles, promoting safeguarding within the organisation and our affiliated Nightlines, providing a strategic, advisory and governance role.

Being a charity trustee with the Association is a rewarding experience and gives a unique opportunity to support and shape a national mental health charity at the highest level. Now is an exciting time to join us as we have recently transitioned from a volunteer-led organisation to a staff-led model, which is opening up new opportunities. 

Trustees have legal responsibility for the Association’s management and administration. They are ultimately responsible for the Association’s work and are accountable to both the Association’s legal members and its regulators such as the Charity Commission for the good governance of the Association.

Trustees take considered and informed decisions in the best interests of the Association. Trustees are not expected to be experts on all areas of their work but are expected to seek guidance and support where necessary and to bring their own knowledge and experience to contribute to discussions.

You can find out more about being a Charity Trustee from the Charity Commission, the Scottish Charity Regulator and the Charity Commission for Northern Ireland.

Music Theatre Wales is looking for new Trustees including our first Young Trustee
We are inviting applications for Trustees and Young Trustees (aged 18 to 25).

What are we looking for in our Trustees?
We want Trustees to bring commitment and enthusiasm for the work MTW is doing to re-imagine opera. We want Trustees who care about the things we care about - ensuring that equality, diversity and inclusion lie at the heart of all our work, driving the creative development we believe opera needs, working with artists new to opera, creating opera in different and innovative shapes and forms and learning from the people we work with. We want Trustees who are pro-active and happy to stand up for our vision, and who will also be our critical friend.

Board Leads
We have recently established a number of Board Leads, where a Trustee takes responsibility for a specific area of the company’s work, supporting and consulting with the MTW team and project leads to ensure best possible practice. We will be looking to recruit a Board Lead for our work in Butetown (we are committed to working in Butetown from January 2024 – Summer 2026), alongside the Leads for Welsh, Diversity, Safeguarding and Environment.

Why do we want Young Trustees?
It’s crucial to our work to have young people’s ideas and expertise in the organisation. We need the broadest range of perspective on our Board, and we want to be guided by a range of people who can contribute to the continued development of our work across all communities, and that includes young people. We are looking to recruit at least one person aged 18 to 25 to bring their voice to the table, to help us find the best ways forward for the future of opera, for the future of the company and most importantly, for future audiences and artists from all backgrounds.

We also want to support young people in their professional and personal development, and we will work with Young Trustees to ensure this is an opportunity for them to build their knowledge and experience. Young Trustees will receive mentoring from existing Trustees and training will be provided for any areas they feel less confident in.

In addition to the recruitment of a young trustee and Board Lead for Butetown, we are also looking to recruit Trustees in a general capacity and welcome applications from people of all backgrounds, ages, skills and experience.

Become a Trustee of Akshaya Patra UK

Akshaya Patra UK raises awareness and funds to help sustain and grow the organisation’s support to children living in poverty across India, whilst directly running Akshaya Patra’s first international kitchen in North London, from which 700,000 meals have been served to British beneficiaries since it opened in 2020.

The UK charity recently published its ambitious new strategic plan and is entering an exciting phase of development, as it seeks to grow its UK meals programme and thereby support many more disadvantaged children across Britain to both eat well and make the most of their education.

The Trustee role

Akshaya Patra UK’s vision is a world where no child is deprived of education because of hunger.

Applications are invited from those with the knowledge and experience – perhaps gained from working at a senior level in the business, public or charity sectors – needed to provide strategic insight, sound advice and constructive challenge to both fellow Trustees and the staff team.

Through offering a blend of mission-centred scrutiny and skilled support, you can contribute to Akshaya Patra UK’s continued strong governance and the expansion of our hot and nutritious meals service to many more children and young people.

Though expressions of interest are invited from all qualified parties, applications are especially welcomed from those with a background in:

• The UK education sector.
• Fundraising.

The key time commitments involved in this non-remunerated Trustee role are:

• Attendance at a two-hour Board meeting once per quarter.
• Participation in an annual strategy day.
• Nominated membership of a Board sub-committee, meeting for an hour once per quarter.

Half of all Board meetings are generally held online, with Trustees invited to attend in-person meetings in central London for the other half (with support available for reasonable expenses).

Submit your application

Please apply for this Trustee role by submitting an up-to-date CV and a supporting letter (covering no longer than two sides of A4).

As a low-cost charity with limited resources, we will only be able to acknowledge those applications from candidates we wish to take forward to interview with the Chair and potentially other Trustees from the Board’s Nominations Committee.
