Trustee

Forward Funding is a charity that is currently in the set-up phase - we are looking for 4 additional trustees to join the set-up team.

Forward Funding is a charity that will use funds to aid in funding private diagnosis and support through other charities and organisations to support people with developmental, physical and mental health conditions.

There is a focus for the charity specifically on working with people who are neurodivergent, but the charity will be formed to create a better road for anyone who is struggling to have treatment through the current state funded options.

We are looking for people who have a background in finance, funds, fundraising, mental health and developmental condition support, as well as business and marketing.

We will be looking for people who, over the next 12 months will aid the charity in its formation as well as initial fundraising efforts. We are currently not a registered charity but want to be once we have enough trustees to do so. 

Currently, there is a sperate limited company that is set up by one of the people who will be a trustee to raise funds for Forward Funding and directly support people who are neurodivergent within the workplace. This means that the funds from this limited company can be raised without risking the charity itself. This operation is set up to run a retail operation on behalf of the charity (once formed), taking responsibility for all high-risk elements of this type of operation but working closely with the charity both in terms of raising income through the retail operation and ensuring neurodiversity in the workplace, opening opportunities for all.

If you are interested in knowing more, please send us a message.

If you would like to apply, please submit a CV and a personal statement to let us know how you think you would be part of our team as we take this leap in to a new charity to support neurodiversity in the workplace as well as private diagnosis and treatment when it out of reach through other means.

We are happy to accept a video application as well if this is better for you.
